Why can't clothes be art? Are you angry at fiberartists and cosplayers, too? If bodies are not canvases, why have people ever gotten tattoos or scarification or piercings, or worn makeup or body paint or jewelry, or styled their hair or, you know, given a shit about what they wear even if they don't care about fashion? I don't approve of the human canvas always being a certain body type or plus-size being dismissed as "too hard" but the human body is definitely a canvas and clothes can definitely be art.

Food is meant to be eaten and provide nutritional sustenance but that doesn't mean no one can ever get fancy with it, even if the result is not an optimally nutritionally balanced meal.

Someone using their own body as art and someone using someone else's body as just a form to put their art on are two completely different things. One is someone claiming their own body. The other is someone else using someone else's body and not even caring about the body or person except so far as it can be used to show off the artist's art.

That's an awful lot of assumptions about designer/model relationships that's also incredibly dehumanizing to models who work in it.

My issue isn't with women enjoying and wearing fashion. My issue is with fashion treating women as just a body to put their art on. Fashion de-humanizes women, and that's what bothers me.

I’m none of the anons in this thread and my only experiences with fashion/tailoring were a couple college courses and sewing my own cosplay. I’m also shorter than petite clothes are designed for and my BMI is 30. High fashion treats both women and men as animate clothes hangers. Society in general does commodify women’s bodies and treat us like shit if we don’t fit a very narrow ideal, but runway models all look pretty much like attenuated elves, whether or not they’re female.
