A lot of times fashion is inspired by — and is — art. While discovering and researching different designers and their collections, it's not hard to see the subtle hints of past artwork in their designs. From Dolce & Gabbana to Mondrian, here are 11 comparisons.

1. Armani and O'Keeffe.

Subtle blues, with a similar "V" shape.

2. Zuhair Murad and a Greek Depiction of Aphrodite (artist unknown).

Slim and pale, with a feminine form.

3. Edun and Mondrian

Geometric due to the grid-like pattern, with a splash of yellow.

4. Anna Sui and Rousseau

Exotic--the animal fur mimics the crouching tiger. Both her skirt and the painting contain orange fruit amidst a green backdrop.

5. Greta Gram and Martin Johnson Heade

A bold pink centerpiece with sharp angles sticks out.

6. Altuzarra and Picasso

Exploring and utilizing the different shades of blue. High cheekbones and similar lips.

7. Holly Fulton and Miro

The eye shape dominates both outfit and painting.

8. Aouadi and Henry Courtney Selous

Ruffled, light, and airy. Frilly with baby pink.

9. Delpozo and Diego Rivera

Bold yellow steals the show in both. However, red and blue accents are present in both.

10. Carla Zimpatti and Hokusai

Large, sweeping arcs. Royal blue encircled by white.

11. Dolce and Gabbana and Galerie d'Apollon

Everything is embellished in gold, lending to a very finished and baroque look.
