I have always been in love with fashion illustration. Yesterday I went to the
Society of Illustrators new exhibit
In the Line of Fashion. This beautiful and very inspiring exhibit showcased fashion illustrations from the 20's through 2008. Illustrations used to be more prominent in fashion magazines than they are now and peaked in the 40's and 50's. This exhibit has inspired me to break out the old sketch book and start illustrating again. It's been years, I may be rusty, but it may be time to get started again. Pictured here are a few of my favorites from the show. Top to bottom:
Untitled by Alvaro (date unknown),
Untitled by McClelland Barclay (40's),
The Bumble Bee Girl by Karen Santry(2007)
