What is Wearable Art?
Wearable Art, also known as Art-to-Wear or Artwear, is a form of textile art created and designed to be worn as a form of self-expression. It gives the artist the freedom to use their imagination in creating individually designed and handmade pieces that are extremely personal and one-of-a-kind. As it reflects the artist's soul, Wearable Art allows the artist to express their emotions and creativity in a way that is highly individual and unique. Wearable Art is a great way to express yourself and show off your unique style.
