Laver James. Fashion, Art, and Beauty (an excerpt from a book)
The Metropolitan Museum of Art Bulletin
New Series, Vol. 26, No. 3 (Nov., 1967), pp. 117-128 (article consists of 12 pages)
Published by: The Metropolitan Museum of Art
Everybody knows what fashion is; it hits us in the eye every time we go into the
street. And most people are convinced that they know what art is, although they would
be hard put to define it. Beauty then! For it is the obvious purpose of art to produce
beauty; and it is the obvious purpose of fashion to make women beautiful. Fashion,
art, beauty must surely mean the same thing, or so nearly the same thing that we can
swallow them all in one gulp and rest content.
