Abstract

Both fashion design and costume design are energetic aspects of visual design that have evident impacts upon man's everyday interactions in society. And from the basis that art affects society and society in turn affects art, this paper explores the social and historical contexts of both fashion and costume design. The paper outlines these two realms of artistic design, showing moments of transition where one can become the other. The paper delineates how fashion can become costume and how costume can in turn become fashion. The social and historical means by which these transformations from costume to fashion (or vice versa) take place within the creative interaction of the artist, his/her design and the society are then articulated in the paper.
