Collage print is exactly how it sounds; a collage of different photos and prints pieced together on a single item. In art, you can use any item to make a collage; magazine clippings, ribbon, beads, fabrics, etc. Collage is considered a type of modern art, however, it can also be designed in a way to be considered pop art. Pop art is any kind of art that includes popular aspects of mass media, such as newspaper, advertising, logos, etc. Collaging is a common technique used in pop art. So, how does this relate to fashion? Well, fashion and art are interchangeable. We often use art techniques to inspire fashion trends and vice-versa.

In the above set, I featured a Carven collage print A-line skirt. This is a fun piece to style because it’s abstract and has many different colors on it. That leaves my color palette options endless! I paired the skirt with an orchid ruffle blouse and a black Balmain structured blazer. I love the purple hue, orchid; it’s so rich and bright. I also really like this blazer because the architecture inspiration adds another aspect of art to this look. I accessorized with a black Henri Bendel mini crossbody and orchid Kate Spade jeweled suede heels. For jewelry, I chose a gold BaubleBar multi-strand bracelet and multi-colored stone drop earrings.
