Sympathy for the devil

Mary Kate and Ashley

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen twins, these two 23 year old chickas have certainly inspired me with their sassy and trendy looks. From the jacket, to the shoes, each outfit is amazing and sometimes even mouth dropping! There are too many must have's when i see them on a fashion spread magazine. And for those of you who aren't familiar with them i'll just give a background knowledge.

MK and Ashley are American actresses best known for playing the role of Michelle Tanner on the sitcom Full House. Their careers kicked off from a head start since infants. That is pretty fascinating if you think about it. They have starred in television programmes, films, interviews and commercials. As the sisters have matured, they found a passion for fashion. (Hence the name of my blog) Mary Kate was declared as a fashion icon for bringing out her signature "homeless look". The style sometimes referred to as " bohemian-bourgeois" is similar to that bohemian chic look that Sienna Miller, and Kate Moss carry out. The look consists of oversized sunglasses, boots, loose sweaters, and flowing skirts all with an aesthetic of mixing high end pieces with low end. Mary-Kate and Ashley have a clothing line in Wal-Mart stores across North America for girls ages 4 – 14 as well as a beauty line called "Mary-Kate and Ashley: Real fashion for real girls".

The Olsen twins style

Can we consider fashion as an art? This is quite debatable for some beings. I think fashion is a form of decorative art, applied for our body, as opposed to fine art. You have surely come across some very exquisite and moving portraits of the greatest artists such as Peter Paul Rubens, Leonardo da vinci, Monet, Picasso and so forth. The portrait is a still image, a mask, an interpretation of an opinion, matter, an experience in life that artists have expressed onto a canvas. I believe fashion has great similarities when compared to these portraits. It is a mask behind your true being.Or exactly the opposite. It can directly tell people who you are. You can also disguise yourself in clothing, and for the time being be satisfied, and grateful for escaping into another life-even if it is just for one night. Clothing is very important if you think about it clearly. You can be looked down on, if you wear the wrong clothing, or immediately be put into this stereotypical label. This is why your appearance matters so much when speaking of fashion, because strangers do not know you, so the only way they judge you is by your outfits. Fashion is very important for appearance, because it can open doors that cannot be opened if you for example are walking around a train station bare feet, with just an oversize shirt hugging your body. People would immediately associate you as a crazy person, or a physco, and their first instinct would be to move away. On the other hand, if you clutched a Louis vuittion bag, wore Prada shoes, and a Marc Jacobs jacket, then you most probably would be immediately classed as a rich girl. Even if you have borrowed the clothes from the store. My point is, that the same amount of artistic expression goes into clothing, as much as in paintings. With colour, and material you can achieve a lot. Fashion also distinguishes a certain period of time, so people are aware of the century. Fashion is beauty. Isn't that after all what art is about? A form of expressed visual beauty?

Is Fashion art?
