Fashion and Architecture

A seamless connection

Architecture and fashion seem like unlikely bedfellows However, in more ways than one, they are cut from the same cloth

Architects and fashion designers follow similar work principles, geometry, and balance to create form, structure, and design lines. This admiration flows both ways. Sophisticated structures have been the muse for various fashion designers

Both fashion and architecture do the following: shelter human beings and are designed around their proportions they are composed of skin and structure [needle, threads, materials, columns, paneling etc ], and entrances and exits [zippers, holes, doors, windows etc ]

Hallmarks of fashion inspired by architecture include exaggerated proportions and swooping angles and particular attention to construction and shapes
