This volume, accompanying an exhibition at The Costume Institute, provides an unprecedented view of the complete change of the fashion silhouette from three-dimensional and fixed shapes to two-dimensional and ephemeral forms, accompanied by a like shift in materials, which occurred rapidly during the years before World War I. ![]() During the teens fashion made its transformation from a full, rounded, static, and exaggerated shell built on the human body to a soft, dynamic cylinder revealing the body and reveling in flatness. Richard Martin, Curator of The Costume Institute, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, argues that the influence of Cubism has been at least as powerful for fashion as it has been for bringing about a new way of seeing in the fine arts. Here their work is shown next to art works by Georges Braque, Robert Delaunay, Juan Gris, Fernand Léger, Pablo Picasso, and other seminal artists of the early twentieth century. Significantly, this book does not extol rudimentary drawings for apparel by Cubist artists, but rather presents a critical study of the most accomplished creations by Poiret, Vionnet, Chanel, and other premier designers who assimilated Cubist principles. This volume, by juxtaposing art and fashion, shows how many of the most glittering and elegant dresses of the teens and twenties benefited from Cubist concepts. Yet, little is known about the relationship between Cubist art and fashion.Ĭubism and Fashion demonstrates for the first time how the fundamental traits of Cubist art were translated into fashion during the critical years from 1908 into the early 1920s and how Cubism has continued to influence designers even to the present. The flat planes, indeterminate space, cylinders, cones, rotation, and use of collage in Cubist art revolutionized painting and sculpture, turning three-dimensional illusionism into abstract concept. Cubism's essential role in the development of twentieth-century art, specifically through the innovative work of Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, and others beginning about 1908, has been widely recognized for many years. ![]()
