Art/Fashion in the 21st Century

Over the last decade major artists have teamed up with top fashion houses to produce contemporary masterpieces that challenge the traditional boundary between these two dynamic cultures. From fashion designers' collaborations with artists on their collections to catwalk shows, fashion photography, and dazzling new retail spaces, this book explores the "art as fashion" and "fashion as art" . The authors offer a dual perspective on how and why today's artists and designers are increasingly open to inspiration beyond their own creative arenas. Five thematic chapters feature profiles of the key designers, stories about the most avant-garde projects, and interviews with leading figures in the art-fashion crossover. Nearly 250 illustrations showcase collaborative art/fashion work from Acne Studios, Balenciaga, Chanel, Hussein Chayalan, Tracey Emin, Jean Paul Gaultier, Zaha Hadid, Hermes, Marc Jacobs, Calvin Klein, Jeff Koons, Stella McCartney, Issey Miyake, Takashi Murakami, Prada,...

Biography and Personal Life

Guinness is the daughter of Jonathan Guinness, 3rd Baron Moyne and his second wife, Suzanne Lisney (d. 2005 of lung cancer).[3][4]

In the mid-1980s, she lived in New York City with her sister Catherine Guinness, who was a companion of Andy Warhol. She married Spyros Niarchos, son of the Greek shipping billionaire Stavros Niarchos, in 1987 at the age of 19, but divorced in 1999 with a reported settlement of about £20 million.

Guinness lives in London and Manhattan, and has three children,[3] following her marriage to Spyros Niarchos:

  1. Nicolas Stavros Niarchos, or Nick Niarchos (b. 1989).
  2. Alexis Spyros Niarchos (b. 1991).
  3. Ines Niarchos (b. 1995).

The close relationship between Guinness and married French intellectual Bernard-Henri Lévy has become something of an open secret known and acknowledged by most American society columnists since 2008.[citation needed] On 13 July 2010, Daphne Guinness confirmed the whole story in the UK press.[citation needed] In the 2011 February issue of the US Harper's Bazaar,[5] her friend, the fashion writer Derek Blasberg, quoted her description of him: "He is quite obviously the love of my life".[6]

On 8 December 2009, she appeared in Kid Cudi's music video, Pursuit of Happiness.[4]

Fashion

Guinness has designed a range of clothing with Dover Street Market and released an eponymous fragrance in 2009 with Comme des Garçons. Guinness has collected fashion, specifically haute couture, for a number of years, and in 2010 bought the entire wardrobe of the late Isabella Blow, in her owns words, to “prevent Issie’s possessions becoming mere morbid memorabilia… to preserve it.” She has a fascination with armour, and in 2006 approached her great friend Shaun Leane to create a gold and diamond arm glove. Titled 'Contra Mundum' or 'Against The World', this handcrafted, intricately made objet d’art took five years to create and develop and is perhaps one of the most technically advanced pieces in the world of artisan jewels.[7]

Guinness is prominent in the fashion world as a journalist and collector of haute couture. She has an interest in the use of armour in fashion.[8] She was a model in Naomi Campbell's Fashion for Relief runway show for the White Ribbon Alliance to raise funds for mothers in Haiti in 2010. In September 2010, NARS Cosmetics will launch a new collection dedicated to her. [9]
