There's always a debate about design vs art, but in fashion, there is no longer a debate, fashion is art. Cat Chow creates wearable art with materials not intended for fashion. Astro turf, industrial washers, and dollar bills are not off limits but instead is an inspiration that fuels her hands on approach to her designs.
She showed her work in the presentation along with other artists work that inspires her. Fashion designers and artists likes Paco Rabanne, Tom Friedman, Elsa Schiaparelli, and Martin Margiela all inspires her own work. In turn, her work influences others designers and artists and gets people to rethink art and fashion.
She was super nice and I heard that she's in a punk band? Can she get more awesome!?
