Someone once told me that food is fashion. At first this confused me, after all, the average model probably eats 250 calories a day. However, once I opened my eyes I began to realize that there really is a connection between my two biggest indulgences. Some of my favorite bloggers write about both fashion and food (i.e. cupcakes and cashmere), designers are constantly inspired by delicious gourmet cuisines, and the amount of time that goes into creating both fashion and food is really quite similar.

In order for food and fashion to succeed, they have to be presented well and they have to make a person feel good. No one wants a plate of grilled halibut and roasted veggies to look like it was mindlessly thrown on the plate, nor do they want a sweater that is poorly constructed and falling apart at the seams (well, unless it was meant to be that way…). Here are some photos where food and fashion meet eye to eye.
