Fashion Illustration Week 2


Fashion is all about edginess. Strong runway walk, long legs, elegance and confidence are so crucial in fashion world.





The fantasy and the glamour of the couture world. I believe, everyone knows what does Haute Couture means. Basically haute in french is high, couture in dressmaking or fashion. So, its known as high fashion that we have been talking about in the industry of fashion.





Even though, the sketches seem so rough and untidy, they got so much details in them when you look very carefully. The color tones applied in these illustrations are very impressive. Like I said before during last week blog, illustration is all about the way to express yourselves and that is why every sketches stand out really well with its own style and personality.

Fashion Illustration Week 1

Fashion illustration, to me is strong, personal, inspiring, expressive, confidence and motivational. It tells the story very well by all the sketches, either rough or smooth, by all the colors, warm nor cool depending on the artist's expression and mood at that very moment. That is why, I believe, every art pieces has meanings and personal values which stands out very well and original to each artists.

As for the illustration below,  you can see clearly that, there is no rules in illustration. You can create your model very skinny, to have long neck, hands, legs, and small faces. It does not matter. Because, there is no right or wrong and fashion illustration is more about expressing yourself and making it so personal and original. That's why, I think, it is very expressive in a way.

 

Next illustrations are about the details in fashion illustration. Some artists focus mainly on clothing but some focus mainly on figure and some focus on both. It actually depends on individuals though. As for me, I think, I do focus on everything as detail does matter to me a lot.


As for these two illustrations, they are more precise, detail and focus on both figure and dressing. I think every piece is amazing with their individual styles.
