How has the art of the 20th and 21st centuries influenced fashion, and why do designers repeatedly turn to the works of artists? This course reveals the dialogue between the two spheres. The program traces how different artistic movements have shaped the visual language of fashion. From Art Deco and Constructivism to Pop Art and Street Art - each era offered its own ideas that designers adapted into clothing, accessories, and shows. The focus is not only on iconic names like Coco Chanel or Yves Saint Laurent but also on modern brands that continue this dialogue. Lecture 1. "Art Deco in Art and Fashion" (April 2) The discussion will focus on the style of the 1920s and the image of the new woman.
