[Q]uote

WHAT DO YOU THINK AN ARTIST IS? AN IMBECILE WHO ONLY HAS EYES, IF HE IS A PAINTER, OR EARS IF HE IS A MUSICIAN, OR A LYRE IN EVERY CHAMBER OF HIS HEART IF HE IS A POET, OR EVEN, IF HE IS A BOXER, JUST HIS MUSCLES? FAR FROM IT: AT THE SAME TIME HE IS ALSO A POLITICAL BEING, CONSTANTLY AWARE OF THE HEARTBREAKING, PASSIONATE, OR DELIGHTFUL THINGS THAT HAPPEN IN THE WORLD, SHAPING HIMSELF COMPLETELY IN THEIR IMAGE. HOW COULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO FEEL NO INTEREST IN OTHER PEOPLE, AND WITH A COOL INDIFFERENCE TO DETACH YOURSELF FROM THE VERY LIFE WHICH THEY BRING TO YOU SO ABUNDANTLY? NO, PAINTING IS NOT DONE TO DECORATE APARTMENTS. IT IS AN INSTRUMENT OF WAR.

Artspiration: from Vogue.com

photo from Vogue.com
While I was wandering in the wild wild world of the internet, I came across this photo.
This is a such a smart idea for designers.
This has definitely widened my eyesight for inspiration.
The two things that interest me the most- collide. Simply amazing.
I absolutely love how the patterns on the canvas transformed onto these beautiful dresses.

Donatella Versace once said that fashion isn't simply just art. Well, go figure. Because they are literally wearing art!
