Art and Fashion go hand in hand. Artists of all time have depicted the uses and clothing of their periods and designers have always searched for inspiration in art, pouring artworks, details or entire artistic movements into their designs. 

The 2013/2014 Fall collections, presented in New York and Paris, have once again been nurtured by masterpieces of all eras and styles.  Let's see some of these "inspiring artists" and their influence in what we'll be wearing soon...
