Abstract

The basic idea of this work is to examine parallels and relationships between two creative arts, architecture and fashion, at the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century, through a theoretical examination of their similarities and differences, whereby fashion is recognized as an artistic discipline. Prominent architects and fashion designers are allowed to become icons and these creative professionals are some of the most famous artists who practice design and thereby achieve iconic status within popular culture.
