My Fashion Illustration Project




This is my first project for my fashion class and my first exercise in illustrating garments and drawing fashion figures. We had an inspiration image (above) that we had to design from. I chose this image because I think it has some great colors, gray and yellow and navy and blue, in it and also some different materials and shapes. It's supposed to be a military-inspired set of looks, because of the military-looking eagle pin attached to the mirror. If you look, every piece takes inspiration from something in the photo, and the colors are all matching as well.

It took me at least 40 hours to finish this project and incorporate it into a presentation. It's really hard to make the clothes and bodies look even semi-realistic! I think the final project came out a little cartoony when I was going for a more foreboding and sharp look, but everyone thought it was successful in the critique.
