The Last Choice Of Costume

A couple of years ago, when fashion designers put themselves in the studio all day and studied all kinds of cutting techniques, Tom Ford opened a new door for fashion.

More and more designers have locked their inspiration in the field of artistic creation, and the combination of fashion and art is always a force.

In particular, the Yves Saint Laurent, Christian Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Alexander McQueen, Viktor&Rolf and so on are the major brands that will not be interpreted in the fashion show, and will be displayed on the advanced customization.

Since then, fashion has been placed in the name of art, while art has torn the labels of small audiences through fashion.

"We may not be real artists," says Marc Jacobs, creative director of Louis Vuitton, who is the twin sister of fashion and art. "But that does not mean that we need to give up the appreciation and possession of art."

Gertrud Lehnert, a professor at central Saint Martin University in London, said in her book MODE that fashion entered the modern era in the 20s of last century.

Fashion is no longer hidden behind the art of architecture, literature, painting or design, but rather develops with balance and forms an independent artistic field.

This means that fashion design in modern sense is destined to be attached to art from the moment of its birth.

What's more, most of the Academy's designers have received professional and systematic pure art courses in universities, and even design masters such as Yves Saint Laurent and Christian Lacroix are painting or artistic origin themselves.

Maybe you can also recall the artwork auction shortly after the death of Yves Saint Laurent.

His private art collection, which is initially estimated to have a total value of up to three hundred million euros, is comparable to any major art collection in the world.

This is enough to explain why Yves Saint Laurent's works contain strong artistic factors.

Designers who are addicted to art are of course more than Yves Saint Laurent. Most of the buddies in today's fashion world, Karl Lagerfeld, are young artists from the left bank of Paris. The Chanel1997 autumn and winter series they took over were inspired by the abstract expressionist Wassily Kandinsky.

John Williams Waterhouse, a British neoclassical painter, is the favorite of Anna Sui and her most important inspiration for design.

She used the Peacock Room, designed by James McNeill Whistler in the Freer Museum of art in New York, as an inspiration.

Picasso, who is so fascinated by some people, has been evaluated by Yves Saint Laurent, who has inherited the tradition of "costume painter" since Elsa Schiaparelli, and created her own works of art with the beautifully tailored fashion.

Yves Saint Laurent said in a speech entitled "dialogue with art": "there is a plucent film between fashion and art, which makes them look very close, but there is a suffocating distance between them."

As the founder of modern art and representative of Western modernist painting, Picasso is the most important inspiration for fashion designers Mousika.

Its rich painting heritage and varied artistic styles bring endless inspiration for every fashion designer.

Yves Saint Laurent lived in a living room in Paris with an estimated thirty million euros worth of Picasso painting. In 1971, he painted Picasso's daughter Paloma Picasso in a 1940s style dress and launched the famous "Picasso" series.

The late British genius designer Alexander McQueen has been praised by the media as "Picasso of the clothing industry", rebellious and unruly, pursuing and persisting in art, and changing in style. They all have striking similarities in their respective fields.

And Alexander McQueen's bole, the hat queen Isabella Blow is also a fan of Picasso.

In addition, the Crooks&Castles brand has also launched the Picasso theme T-shirt.

The flowers of Mexico may be seen by many people in the movie "Frida". They know the legendary female painter Frida Kahlo in her life. Her own painful experience and the influence of Mexico folk art on her painting are very great. In her paintings, the image of the female is always portrayed as a sexy woman wearing a colorful dress and full of Mexico style.

In the spring and summer series of Jean Paul Gaultier1998, the design director of the former Herm s s, the design of bunk style is full of punk wind and SM meaning. It is almost a copy of The Broken Column created by Frida Kahlo in 1944. Even from the makeup of the model to its expression, it seems that the hostess in the painting has come to the show.

Jean Paul Gaultier has also been inspired by the Mexico women's image in Frida Kahlo's painting, and combined with its avant-garde bold design, successfully created a series of "Mexico customs".

In addition to Jean Paul Gaultier, the 2007 spring summer series of Sue Wong brought a "Mexico" cultural and artistic experience to Losangeles's fashion week in 2006.

The whole series is dominated by eye-catching colors, bright yellow and red, vividly displaying the folk culture of Mexico.

The creation series called "New Romantics", even Sue Wong herself, admits that there is a sense of Frida Kahlo.

Another fashion designer, Louis Verdad, regards Frida Kahlo as the source of inspiration. It is Frida Kahlo's works that inspired the Louis Verdad 2005 autumn and winter series from the bright flowers on the heads of the T models to the fashion pformation of Mexico's traditional costumes, and the Mexico style Latin folk customs.

Popper subverted the "I really do live for the future" Andy Warhol before the appearance of Andy Warhol. The art world did not blend in the vanguard behavior of the fashion circle. It was the combination of the pop and pop pattern and the fashion test. This bold innovation not only made him a legend of modern American Art, but also deeply influenced the designers from generation to generation.

Nowadays, the name of Andy Warhol is almost synonymous with pop art. He subverts the objective theory that art serves only minority people, and tries to popularize visual creation.

His work, as early as in 1952, made his debut in New York. He hired a group of working teams in the famous studio Factory to abandon classical art and aspire to subvert traditional concept creation.

"Mass Productions" is one of the faces of contemporary famous figures. It is also widely known that canned soup and Coke bottles are turned into works of art.

Under his influence, pop art, with its distinctive personality, has been promoted, exaggerated designs, humorous and playful characters, bold and vivid colors, graffiti lines, and portrait collages. Pop art has penetrated into all walks of life and fields.

And the clothing industry is also feeling this strong pop art trend. D&G printed the head of Madonna on the clothes, printed the head of Marilyn Monroe on the silk dress dress, Julie Verhoeven used the imitation hand painted beauty image as Gibo, and sports fashion Y-3 also used the ten legged cartoon beauty to add rich color to fashion Sport.

In the 20th anniversary years of Andy Warhol's death in 2007, many clothing brands launched special series, such as Levi "s" and "Adidas".

Pop art continues to shine in the clothing industry this season, which seems to confirm the Andy Warhol's simple and crude but enduring art concept.

In 1965, Yves Saint Laurent was selected from the works of Holland style painter Piet Mondrian, and the "Mondrian Dress" was shocked at that time. Since then, the four color grid made of black line, red, yellow and blue has become the classic of its generation.

Yves Saint Laurent, one of a group of commercials that was launched in 1998, mimicked the French Academy of realism and Impressionist painter Adouard Manet's "lunch on the grass".
