Surrealism is an aspect of modernism that might be
viewed as so esoteric it's had little real impact,
but their major principle of strange juxtapositions
has had lasting influence.
Surrealism in fashion is more than just
a blip on the historical landscape.
Here is a costume Adrian designed for Rosalind Russell
for the 1939 movie The Women.
Parisian Elsa Schiaparelli also collaborated with

Here she is wearing her shoe/hat and a fitted jacket with

A collaboration between Schiaparelli and
Jean Cocteau, 1937
Most of Schiaparelli's surrealistic designs were too outre for any customers,
but her Bowknot knit sweater from 1927
is just on this side of the edge,
where it's had a good deal of influence
