Millions of years ago, Art and fashion were invented by humans who weren’t at all like us. The kind of life we all are living today wasn’t the same back then. Let’s rewind a little…

Art from every artist is not alike. They all have their own perceptions and views towards what they want to portray. Its their passion and they are strong emotions connected to it. Fashion is always inspired with what a person must have been through and that shows in their garments. They way it is made there is always a reason behind it. As time passed, people became more innovative and sophisticated.
