It does seem that Couture soon will be less inspirational and more ready to wear. As long as a social being created the art, every work of art makes a social comment. Those clothes are now more accessible than ever because of plenty of very designers mentioned -Dior’s couture was bankrolled by his bridge lines, and even in those wonder years of couture there was enormous pressure to create objects that people should purchase. Still the spectators to broaden thebreadth of what we consider when getting dressed, are we not quite the wearers. Do you know an answer to a following question. What does this mean?
Instead of just be, iscouture now expectedto make a social comment, much the way its ‘ready to wear’ counterparts do? What happens to the last remaining bureau of sheer creativity within fashion, I’d say in case th the case. Was it not, eventually, Chanel’s Spring 2014 Couture presentation that placed sneakers on the map of ‘blacktieoutfitting’? You see, with wearability invariably comes commercialability, that is precisely the kind of soul crushing matter that depletes the whimsy of its indigenousimagination, that doesn’t let it simply be what it’s and instead plants the kind of seed that is expected to blossom into a sartorialmagnate. You’d better be able to wear it a lot, not simply to an awards show, if you’re preparing to drop a ton of money on a couture piece. Anyways, being overtly fancy is really passé. Now look. Greater wearability equals less overt fanciness.-Maybe couture turns out to be more wearble/marketable because of the comfort trend that is emerging. Being fly and being comfortable are no longer mutually exclusive and who doesn’t seek for to becomfortable?-Less but better is gaining traction as a fashion mantra.
Since a social being created the art, each work of art makes a social comment.
This article is assuming that wearability/commercialability necessitatesa lack of creativity but couldn’t it be that this necessitates more creativity?
Sure, that couturedress is made entirely from diamonds and was blessed by a monk on top MountEverest but you can’t sit down or walk in it. Thanks for writing this, very thought provoking. Nonetheless, the question is. Ok, and now one of the most important parts. Couture to me is mostly about craftsmanship, details, textures and so on. For example, I still see an inaccessibility, as I don’t consider that the amount of detail could ever be reached or replicated on a mainstream level, when I look at the new couture collections.
In decades passed, couture used to be about craftsmanship and not creativity.
Lately couture became something we can all understand and equally admire, we don’t need experience in luxury to be able to enjoy the images.
It used to be such constipated divine sort of fashion, that we, ordinary fashion plebs, could only wish to be able to determine being that it was forever out of our reach, intellectually and financially. On another note, By the way I would argue the relative simplicity of more recent couture collections demands the viewer to question production and construction more than ever before in that the literal stripping of bells and whistles leaves no mercy to the skeleton of the clothes. Let me tell you something. Being overtly fancy is really passé. A well-known fact that is. Being fly and being comfortable are no longer mutually exclusive and who doesn’t look for to be comfortable?-Less but better is gaining traction as a fashion mantra.
Greater wearability equals less overt fanciness.-Maybe couture will be more wearable/marketable because of the comfort trend that is emerging. You have to be able to wear it a lot, not simply to an awards ceremony, if you’re planning to drop a ton of money on a couture piece. If anything the couture collections this season and of the past few seasons are just transitioning rather fluidly with the changing connotations of both luxury and art. Known we should wear a knock off made by Zara and similar cheaper brands, we still can’t afford it. Usually, maybe couture has remained identical but we have expanded our options and we wear crazier stuff nowadays? Now let me tell you something. Maybe this is the real reason why couture seems more wearable to us? Maybe we are not scared of it anymore. This is where it starts getting serious, right? The way a society values certain concepts at a given point in time is reflective of various external factors, and I don’t see whyshould function differently.
What was considered casual in the 1950s few women stepped out of the house sans hat and gloves Besides, the question is. Thanks for writing this, very thought provoking. Sure, that couture dress is made entirely from diamonds and was blessed by a monk on top Mount Everest but you can’t sit down or walk in it. Of course, this article is assuming that wear ability/commercial ability necessitates a lack of creativity but couldn’t it be that this necessitates more creativity?
