When Art Met Fashion
VOGUE India|January - February 2024
Fashion loves art, and designers love to pay tribute to artists-Yves Saint Laurent put Piet Mondrian on his graphic mini, Miu Miu collaborated with John Wesley, Dior's Kim Jones has worked with Peter Doig, and Louis Vuitton handbags brandish Yayoi Kusama's dots, to name just a few. But what if an artist was directly asked to make something that was inspired by a designer? For this portfolio, that's exactly what happened. We asked 10 artists from different parts of the world if they would respond to recent collections. Each was paired with a particular designer, and the artist had complete freedom to do whatever they wanted.

When Art Met Fashion

ELIZABETH COLOMBA ON CHRISTOPHER JOHN ROGERS, NONCHALOIR

"Here, time takes on an almost fictional quality. Her presence seems to traverse the boundaries of conventional chronology, existing in a parallel reality-an era that only exists within the realms of imagination, a time that never truly was."

BEATRIZ MILHAZES ON DURO OLOWU, BAOBÁ

"Fashion design has been one of the references in my work since the '90s. Some of my motifs were inspired by Emilio Pucci's designs from the '60s. These are the poetry of a time"

PAUL CHAN ON RICK OWENS, VIDEO STILLS FROM FIFTH SEASON TREER 3

"Thinking about what 'fits' us, not only physically but metaphysically, is interesting. Because if our ideas and beliefs are treated less like immaterial substances that somehow underwrite the unchanging essence of who we are, and more like garments, then we may be more apt to try on new ideas and concepts, the same way we try on a new piece of clothing"

WANGECHI MUTU ON DIOR, MY BELLY FLOWER SUCKING BIRD
