Literature-inspired fashion offers play on fantasy and reality


Implications - Fashion designers and editors are inspired by numerous elements, but lately, the industry has seen a rise in designs and editorials influenced by literature. Offering stylish translations of classic tomes such as The Great Gatsby and Wuthering Heights, and even the modern-day cult favorite 50 Shades of Grey, these literary interpretations allow consumers to experience a piece of romantic fantasy while looking chic and stylish at the same time.
