Jay Z isn’t the only one who wants to be like Picasso. This season, designers gave clothing a fine-art spin with paintterly prints and bold brushstrokes. Karl Lagerfeld channeled Jeff Koons with conceptual set installations that complemented his Pantone-streaked dresses at Chanel. Elsewhwew, Miuccia Prada lifted images from political street muralist, Phobe Philo let her abstract side shine at Céline, and Marc Jacobs opened his final show for Louis Vuitton with Edie Campbell covered in Stephen Sprouse-style graffiti.
From Yves Saint Laurent’s famous Mondrian dress, to the diverse art-world collaborations instigated by Marc Jacobs’ at Louis Vuitton, fashion has often sought inspiration from art. And, for Spring/Summer 2014 the trend continues as one of the key inspirations at Céline was said to be Brassaï’s graffiti work, as sketch books were carried like accessories at Chanel and illustrations by the likes of Jeanne Detallante, Gabriel Specter and El Mac appeared printed on looks and across the walls at Prada. The result: next summer’s fashion promises to be illustrated by everything from paint brushes, to spray cans and graphite.
Inspired by electronic circuits at Fendi, Pasolini’s Medea at Valentino and the Swinging Sixties at Paul Smith, dresses, coats and jumpsuits boasted full-on geometrics, in a trend that echos the art school inspiration we saw elsewhere.
