Art vs. Fashion: Contemporary Art Museum



Art:  This is a column I found while walking around the Contemporary Art Museum.  The second I saw it I pictured some kind of pleated skirt or dress in my mind and new it would be perfect for this assignment.  The column is so beautiful and you can tell a lot of hard work went into it, just like the hard work going into our fashion trends today.

Fashion:  Doo Ri.  Cruise/Resort 2012.  I believe the designer was inspired by color and movement while creating this particular collection.

Interpretation:  This dress seems like its inspiration was taken right from the column above.  The way the pleats fall line up perfectly next to the lines down the column.  Also at the top of the column we see the lines come to an end where the gold piece of art begins.  I compared this to the empire waistline in the dress.
