Artists are futuristic and art is shocking. It is difficult to fit them in currents of the mundane streams. To configure its value. Art walks on an edge of courage and often discards usability and utilitarianism. Art is not comparable and these are the attributes of the art that are in sync with high fashion. The only difference is that haute couture is a wearable art. There is a sense of usability to it, said so even that dimension of Haute Couture does not always translate to utilitarianism. There are many pieces of high fashion that are not wearable. The recent example of Spray painted dress on Bella Hadid Coperni runway during Paris fashion week proves the point. The only purpose of such fashion is to entertain and create drama for the spectacles. It only seeks attention like art towards nothing in particular. Only an experience. Only indulgence, without expectations.

It is not a wonder that many artists collaborate with fashion houses and magazines. Like Salvador Dali created images for the cover of vogue and collaborated with Elsa Schiaparelli to create iconic surrealistic designs. Louis Vuitton also incorporated the vision of Contemporary artists like Jeff Koons and Takashi Murakami. 

Art and Haute Couture have gone through many changes since the inception of expressionist mediums. They have always borrowed from each other and will continue to do so in future. Having said that, Art has reached a point where it is exploring its existence and place in the virtual world. Likewise fashion is also holding hands with art in this endeavour. With evolution of Couture 2.0 to Web 3.0

Not much to conclude but to add, the basic function of fashion and art is to convey and communicate. An emotion, a statement or a nature of change that is happening or about to happen. More so, Art and high fashion together propagate change. It invites the viewers to its uniqueness rather than moulding itself to the whims and fancies of the audience. High fashion and  Fine Art is not about what you can want out of it. It is about what it has to give and enrich you.
