7 Eye-Catching Examples of Painted Fashion

We combed through a wide range of current collections to find examples of painted treatments—from vintage denim to Dior—in honor of this weekend’s Frieze Art Fair New York.

Inspired by Frieze New York, we decided to poll current fashion for instances of . . . let’s say, creative license, particularly where designers have applied painted treatments. The results are both visually pleasing and surprisingly varied: From the ethereal dresses of London-based womenswear whiz Holly Fowler to cerulean-swathed astrakhan coats at Dior pre-fall 2014 to dappled knits at Bottega Veneta resort 2015, take a spin through our very own virtual wardrobe gallery. It puts the art in sartorial!
