Art and fashion always mix, and so when my cousin asked me if she can be considered an artist, I easily said yes! She is a fashionista (a colloquial term meaning someone who is so into fashion) to begin with. But being into fashion doesn’t guarantee one to being an artist! There is a long trail of hard work, positive craziness and certain gift that one will become an artist.
Like all other crafts, fashion should be honed and practice. One should expose herself into different teachings, facts, literature – all to widen his or her sensibility. This of cannot be done with reading a single book, or watching an art film, nor attending a fashion crash course! One has to study it!
And then she asked me where she would study. Without a doubt I told her that she should choose from any New York fashion schools!
