Nature has been the muse for artists since ancient times and they are still drawing upon its endless beauty. While paintings of sceneries are what usually come to mind, nature inspired art pieces are more present in our lives that we realize. For example, you might have a piece of art hanging inside your closet in the form of a designer dress.
Russian artist Liliya Hudyakova has set out to reveal just how much fashion designers are being influenced by nature. She has managed to find remarkable similarities between natural sceneries and the most beautiful dresses that have appeared on the runway.
Whether the designers’ inspiration for these pieced was indeed from Nature or not may be debatable, but it can’t be denied that Liliya has managed to find the perfect match for these in Nature for these 32 dresses.
