Books like Cubism and fashion by Martin, Richard


Cubism and Fashion offers a detailed study of how the radical principles of Cubist art were translated into clothing during the critical years from 1908 into the early 1920s. By juxtaposing fashion with the works of key Cubist painters—Georges Braque, Robert Delaunay, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, Pablo Picasso, and others—the book shows how pioneering designers such as Poiret, Vionnet, and Chanel incorporated Cubist concepts into some of the era’s most elegant and celebrated dresses. The volume also examines the ongoing influence of Cubism on contemporary fashion design.
