I enjoy fashion and when I found these 3 ladies I was thrilled to bring them home to work with me! They are lined up on the wall behind my desk and they inspire me every day.
I should name them, don't you think?
Since I added these fashion prints to my office I've noticed fashion in art all over the place! I know this isn't a new thing, but it's kind of like when you buy a blue VW Beetle -- you then start seeing blue VW Beetles everywhere!
Here are a few more of my favorites. There is something for every style so if you love fashion and decorating consider adding something like this to your decor. Place them in unexpected rooms -- kitchen, entry or living areas -- and enjoy your home's new fashion!
{Vogue cover, Autumn Fuchsia, 1957. Love the color here! This is not focused on the fashion as much as it is the color and car, but it screams good fashion, so it's in!}
{A little Houndstooth & Tweed for your home. Love the dog!}
{"Fell in Love" giclee print, Ballard Designs. Romantic.}
{Back view of gown, Zimmerman. Great colors!}
{"Newspaper Dress" giclee print, Ballard Designs}

I saved my favorite for last. The original "newspaper dress," by San Francisco artist, Denise Fiedler, was 12" high and created by hand cutting strips from the pages of old book and newspapers. I immediately wondered what I could cut up to create a similar look for my house! Love the graphic nature of this dress.

Have you included fashion art in your home? Where? I'd love to know what's on your walls!
Happy decorating.

Great post, April! I love fashion oriented artwork....and YES! I have some in my office, too! I love the first shot you showed of the PINK Vogue cover...I'd like to get my hands on that!
Have a beautiful weekend...keep on inspiring us with your creativity!

I love your fashion art and it is so YOU!
The walls in our walls are filled with things that mean something to our family and our interests.
Since I'm an artist, most of it is my own work. I've painted our pets, including our horses, dogs and cats as well as a large portrait of my husband on his hunt horse.
I'm also considered a wildlife painter and some of my arwork reflects birds, foxes and other wildlife that I have seen.
The art hanging in our home fits our interests and makes us happy.
LOVE those prints! I too have framed some vogue prints for my apartment.
Thank you all for your comments...sounds like you are getting it right in your homes!
April, these images are so YOU! I recently moved my office into a different space in my home so I have also been reconsidering the artwork. I have several paintings that were given to my by a client (who is the artist). They are so wonderful - colorful and intense. They are the pieces I didn't know I was looking for. They inspire me.
Love the prints (and Ballard Designs)...hmm gives me some fresh ideas for my bedroom....

Valerie - thanks. Who doesn't love fresh ideas for the bedroom!? :)
Great artworks :) I love the one with Audrey Hepburn...
Maybe you should name the first three paintings after fashion icons like Audrey, Jacqueline, etc.
Keep posting!
