Tracey Emin and Vivienne Westwood


I am just writing us work in CCS. I am looking at the relationship between fashion and art. Trying to get an answer - Is Fashion Art? This semester I am writing about Vivienne Westwood and making a magazine cover instead of a poster. Instead of doing womenswear (which I would normally do) I have decided to focus on menswear for a change, as well I am a man. I absolutely love Westwood for this reason I have never done a project on her, as I like to show diversity within my work and portfolio. 

I found this image, which evokes many different feelings and thoughts one mainly to me the exploitation of women if you analyze the images components what the subject is doing with the positioning money  – it is collaboration between the British artist Tracey Emin and Vivienne Westwood. It is contemporary art but using fashion as a way of furthering the message with Westwood’s corset.
