TwitterIt makes sense that the worlds of high fashion and art often collide, and lately I’ve come across quite a few crossovers. Below, a few of the curious collaborations and inspirations I’ve come across recently.
(Left to right) Warhol-inspired perfume; Delftware boot vase; Lady Gaga in Vogue, December ’09.
- For $220, you can smell like Andy Warhol’s Money series with Bond No. 9 New York — Andy Warhol perfume. Apparently, the prints smell spicy and citrusy. Who knew?
- Here’s a really unusual gift idea from ELLE’s December 2009 issue… Delftware-inspired Wellington rain boots — that aren’t rain boots at all, but in fact porcelain vases.
- Award for most simultaneously awesome and bizarre fashion/art crossover yet: Lady Gaga’s feature in Vogue’s December 2009 issue, where she poses as the witch in Grace Coddington’s interpretation of Hansel and Gretel. In her feature, Lady Gaga describes her performance for the LA Museum of Contemporary Art gala, at which she played a piano made by Damien Hirst. Here’s hoping her next music video not only features the craziest of runway fashion, but some contemporary art too–might I suggest a dance segment alongside one of Jeff Koon’s metallic balloon dogs?
Have I missed any happenings between art & fashion? Let me know in the comments!
