A Passion for Fashion: 100 Years of Rauschenberg's Fabric Artworks and Costume Designs | Robert Rauschenberg Foundation
Robert Rauschenberg’s path into fine art started not in a studio, but on the stage. As a teenager in Port Arthur, Texas, he sketched and sewed costumes for school plays. Just a few years later, on the GI Bill, he enrolled as a fashion major at the Kansas City Art Institute. This early training with fabric was just the beginning. Throughout his career, Rauschenberg continued to embrace the sumptuous, malleable qualities of textiles and fabrics both in his costume designs for dance companies and in his innovative artworks.

In early 2025, the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation began speaking with designer Jason Wu about the possibility of a Spring 2026 collection inspired by the artist's work. The resulting collection, "Collage," pays homage to Rauchenberg's use of found materials and is imbued with Wu's own unique design sensibilities. "For me, his work is combining disparate things and making it into one cohesive piece of art," the designer noted. "That, to me, is kind of the genius of what he does."
