What's Art got to do with it?

by Zelda Visser 15 Jun 2021

It is no longer strange to see a work of art, or recently a nifty, sell for hundreds of millions of dollars. Collecting art has become synonymous with ultra-rich collectors, unscrupulous middle-men, and artists who are sometimes better talented in making money than creating original work. 

What can be said of the art world can, in a certain sense, also be said of the luxury fashion world.

To paraphrase Oscar Wilde: There are indeed many people who know the price of everything and the value of nothing, and I sometimes cannot help myself think: “What has art got to do with this?”

I try not to be cynical for too long. Cynicism is not good for happiness, and beauty, in any case, is in the eye of the beholder. For me, buying art is an investment in my sense of beauty. When I look at art, I want to acknowledge the passion, the hours, the technical skill, and the talent. I like to do the same when I buy and, now, also make clothes.

At Pause Apparel, our approach is to honor skill, talent, attention to detail, and hard work. Even though it may be challenging to price that, it is not difficult to value that. At Pause Apparel, we honor our love for art and our respect for the artist by using our experience, technical knowledge, and creativity to turn, with the minutest attention to detail, art into “Art that you can wear™. Beautiful, comfortable, and technically superior.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
