Dive into the captivating interplay between art and fashion. We’ll explore two fascinating perspectives:
- Fashion That Made Portraits Legendary — discover how iconic outfits helped immortalize artists like Sargent, Titian, Klimt, Leighton, Vigée Le Brun, Moroni, Rembrandt, Gainsborough, Liotard, Leyster, Lempicka and Kahlo in unforgettable portraits and self-portraits.
- Art That Transformed Fashion — see how masterpieces inspired groundbreaking designers, from Impressionism’s influence on Dior, to Mondrian’s bold geometry inspiring Yves Saint Laurent, and Yayoi Kusama’s playful patterns brought to life by Louis Vuitton. Plus, I’ll share must-read books and the best London museums where you can continue this stylish exploration of Art and Fashion.
About Roberta
Roberta’s love for art and architecture borders on "obsession"—and she’s happily embraced it! Her special passion lies in Modernist architecture, which led her to earn a Graduate Certificate with distinction in History of Art and Architecture from Birkbeck University. That was actually her second degree—her first career is in Economics, with over 20 years of experience in the fast-paced world of financial markets. Now, she channels her energy into making art and architecture not just informative, but fun, relatable and engaging for everyone. She’s the founder of Art Tours with a Theme – ART wiT, a London-based project offering themed tours and talks that bring the city’s creativity to life. You can follow her curated art and architecture adventures on Instagram @artwit_london and Facebook @artwitlondon.
