Fashion is towards simpler, unadorned clothing. By combining technical mastery of the fiber media with an increasingly refined sense of garment construction, these artists provide a new context for the simple, traditional forms upon which many of their works are based. Many wearable garments are based on folkloric or peasant clothing shapes. Since the shapes are already functional, the attention is focused on the surface, color, pattern and texture. They are people in touch with their individuality celebrating the body and adorning it with richly embellished expressions of personal identity.
Tee shirts to evening wear, conservative to far-out, literally something for everyone.
The best of the American psyche with all its fantasy, exuberance and love of individuality is reflected in the wearable art movement and as for the person who chooses to wear art, it shows a deep personal concept of what best expresses their inner self. So, do not be afraid to explore the wonderful world of wearables.
