Abstract
This paper delves into the intersection of fashion and art, exploring the intricate boundaries that blur the lines between these two creative disciplines. By examining historical and contemporary examples, the study highlights how fashion has been influenced by artistic movements and how, in turn, it has become a medium through which artists express their creativity. The analysis reveals the dynamic relationship between clothing, accessories, and the visual arts, showcasing how designers and artists employ similar conceptual frameworks to challenge traditional definitions and push the boundaries of what is considered "fashionable." The paper argues that the synergy between fashion and art not only enriches our appreciation of both fields but also contributes to the evolution of cultural expression, reflecting societal values and trends.
