fashion as art.

Image From: Vogue UK and Inge Jacobsen

It only seems fitting for these artworks, created by Inge Jacobsen, to make an appearance in the 'Fashion as Art' section of my blog. Hand stitched out of old British Vogue covers, the artist aims to challenge how we respond to mass produced imagery by shifting its context to create unique and exclusive art. 

The idea is simple and the result is intriguingly beautiful.
