Prints Are Back, But It’s Not Florals & Stripes This Time
Love Charlotte Olympia shoes? Lulu Guinness bags? Sophia Webster’s punchy take on accessories? Well, then you’re going to love this. Pop art has always been a celebration of commonplace objects and everyday life displayed in an aesthetic manner. Ever since pop art emerged in the ’50s, it has gone hand in hand with the fashion industry because it was at that point that fashion designers and artists began influencing one another.

Well, then you're going to love this. Pop art has always been a celebration of commonplace objects<br />
and everyday life displayed in an aesthetic manner. Ever since pop art emerged in the '50s, it has<br />
gone hand in hand with the fashion industry because it was at that point that fashion designers and<br />

democratized for the first time ever, which gave us many collaborations and partnerships between<br />
the industries during this period.<br />

manner.<br />

continues to be the most cited art movement in fashion.<br />
