Fashion Illustration

Fashion Illustration is the communication of fashion that deal with illustration, drawing and painting. It's usually use for reproduction in fashion magazines as a part of an editorial feature or for the purpose of advertising and promoting fashion makers, fashion boutiques and department stores. Mostly, fashion illustration was on Vogue magazine cover. Fashion Illustration has been around for nearly 500 years. Fashion illustration was needed to translate the original idea or concept of clothes.  More recently, Fashion Illustration shift to have a very minor role. There has been a decline of fashion illustration in the late 1930s when Vogue began to replace its celebrated illustrated covers with photographic images. The first photographic cover of Vogue was a devined in the history of fashion illustration and a watershed mark of its decline.

Helen Dryden is my inspiration

Remembered primarily for her cover art for "Vogue" magazine in the early 1900s, Helen Dryden reflected various styles including Art Nouveau and Art Deco. She also created Japanese-style prints, primitive Italian painters and children's books. Her subjects "were rich and sensuous in color, witty and lighthearted, but also with a haughty air of elegance".

Example of her art work . .

- I like the color of her illustration very much. This illustration gives a smooth & soft feeling because of lines and curves that she used. This art has a perfect combination between European and Japanese style.

- The combination of color is really nice. I like these two girls that dress up with baroque or rococo style clothing.Colors of the trees also make me feel like living in an other world. And a woman in black dress, her face gives some passion.

- For this one I feel like she add some of indian style in her illustration. I like pastel colors that she used. I also like the yellow line that she use to emphasis the characters and all the main focus.

- For me, this one I think she tried to make her illustrator like a cindellera story. We can see by a shoe that her drop off and also a carriage. I like her cloth with a neon pink, it's really attractive to look at.

- This one for me it shows a confident of this woman. I noticed it from her posture and her face expression. It's also represent that every women want to be beautiful.
