Fashion...is it art or commerce or both?
Fashion is more than just fabric on a body. It is design + function + beauty + feel/fabric. It's about "the look" and how it makes you feel inside and out. It's about a personal statement of your identity...whether for that day or a life-time.
Fashion is the one art that is both HIGH and LOW. Within reach of all...and rare and rarefied.
We watch images bombarding us daily in magazines, billboards, tv, online...everywhere an image can be displayed.
YET...fashion has the means to transport or transform both the wearer and the viewer. It has a potentcy that no other art form shares. It's immediacy is part of it's compelling nature. Trends come and go and the remnants are those items adorning our closet. Yet there is even within this fast moving world, classics that last a lifetime or can be handed down like heirlooms.
Fashion is art is life is beauty is fun is silly is wonderful...is you...is me!
