Fashion is an art, it's a way for you to communicate yourself to the world at large through dressing. It's where people find your charisma and temperament and enchantment. It's also where you find your flaws and imperfection, and then you look for ways to improve them.
However, fashion is now tainted with commercialism. What you see in the fashion photographs might be just images of the stylist, the market trend and fashion editors' personal preference. Is fashion still an art? The answer is blurry.
It's even more blurry after I saw these stunning avant-garde photographs by Deborah Turbeville. It defines the boundary between fine art fashion and commercial fashion. It shows the sophistication and sensuality of women, purely original and raw, no extravagance, no rhetorics. The point is, people don't care the answer anymore. When fashion is here, it's here. It's everywhere.
The full photographs by Deborah Turbeville will be exhibited in Donna Karan's flagship shop during London Fashion Week in this month.
