As the fashion world focuses on the Spring\/Summer Milan Fashion Week<\/a>, we at the Tangible Interiors blog<\/a> thought is would be exciting to explore the relationship between fashion and interior design. On a regular basis, we explore various artistic mediums to see what the interior industry can learn from other industries. Today we are focusing on the connection between fashion and interior design.<\/p>\n

Interior designers can learn many things from the fashion industry; with fashion brands\u2019 use of experimental designs and cutting edge style, we can receive an immeasurable amount of inspiration.<\/p>\n

Fashion giants such as Gucci<\/a> have been influencing artists for years. Their commitment to artisan craftsmanship and quality manufacturing materials, make them stand out from the crowd. Gucci says the following about their commitment to artistry:<\/p>\n

Ever since Guccio Gucci founded the house in Florence in 1921, the brand has been a destination for the world\u2019s most discerning men and women, representing at once contemporary glamour and traditional Made In Italy craftsmanship.

Fashion newcomers such as New York based, Bespoken<\/a>, led by London-born brothers, Sam and Liam Fayed, continue to impact the art\u00a0world in a powerful way. The Fayed brothers founded Bespoken in New York in 2008. The brothers grew up working in their father\u2019s business, renowned English shirtmaker, Turnbull & Asser<\/a>, and have created a line that retains a focus on craftsmanship while maintaining a modern aesthetic with downtown sensibilities. Bespoken was awarded the Best New Menswear Designer Award in 2013 by GQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bespoken’s modern sensibility make it a great inspiration for interior designers looking for stylish imagery.<\/p>\n

Recent collaboration between the fashion and interior industries is somewhat of a throwback to an earlier time, in which fashion designers and interior designers worked together to create beautiful, stylish art.\u00a0Patrick Lelievre, chairman of the Parisian textile house Lelievre<\/a>, says the following:<\/p>\n

In the 18th century, fashion fabrics and decorative fabrics were very similar.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Patrick Remond, co-founder of Atelier O\u00ef<\/a>, a Swiss architecture and design firm which has done work for Bulgari Parfums<\/a> and Louis Vuitton<\/a>, says this\u00a0about the fashion and design connection:<\/p>\n

We work a lot like fashion designers. We have to have materials in our hands. Playing with materials, experimenting, being inspired by them. There\u2019s always a connection between materials and the story.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
