The 20th century remains the most fascinating example for the way Architecture and art transformed, in a revolutionary way, our world, in particular, fashion and life style. The first decades of the century were the most important both in architecture and fashion design, from geometrical Art Nouveau to Modernism and International Style. They have changed the face of the cities, the way of living and the ideal of the human beauty, connecting architects, painters, musicians, philosophers, writers and fashion designers. Adolf Loos, was saying in the ’20, that „ the costume is nothing else but a primary form of shelter”, and through the following decades architects and respected designers have created remarkable fashion works. At the course History of the costume, I have proposed to the students, exercises of creativity, which reveal the approach between architecture and the human body, a subtle message of volumes, forms, textures and colors.
