Trend of the week: Artful trend

Put fashion in the frame with this season’s most artful trend.

INSPIRATION

Is it fashion? Is it art? Well, a bit of both. Runways took a museum-worthy turn as designers sought inspiration from the masters: portrait prints at Prada; Kandinski paint splashes at Jil Sander, not to mention multiple pop art references from Henry Holland to Kenzo. Brush strokes may be broad but this trend looks set to be a bona fide collector’s item.
