Art vs. Fashion: Duomo

Art:  This is a small section of the roof on top of the Cathedral in Duomo Di Milano.  The Cathedral is called Santa Maria Nascente and  was completed in 1965.  I took this picture while I was venturing to the top of Duomo.

Fashion: Chado Ralph Rucci.  Cruise/Resort 2011.  Rucci has a reputation for making his collections with a city-chic day sort of feel; this style shown through fabulously in this particular collection.

Interpretation:  Everything at Duomo is so inspiring it was hard to narrow it down to just one photo.  I choose a picture of part of the roof because it make me thing of layering and bold lines, which are two huge trends in fashion today.  Everywhere you look you see examples of these trends.  For example, I choose an item from Rucci's Cruise/Resort wear collection in 2011.  I choose this item because of the way the shirt layers of the pants.  Also because of the bold solid lines, just like those on the roof.
