Fashion Illustration







In the fashion illustration lesson I had learned about figure proportions, average male around 7.5 and female 7 heads but normally in the fashion drawing the figure proportion is 9 heads, because normally model will be taller and the figure drawing looks like Barbie. than I had draw nine head marking and start practising to draw figure by free hand, and the next practice I had roughly copying and draw the outline of the figure by looking at difference poses model picture, then I layering paper on top and start fineing the drawing and make the proportion looks more accurate and complete by using light box, then lastly I had tried to draw some clothing design on top of the figure I have been draw.

Overall I have learned about the differences between the normal figure proportion and fashion figure proportion, also I had learn that tracing paper is not the only method to draw fashion template I also can use the light box, lastly I have learn different method to draw figure by free hand.

Those technique can help me when I draw the final six design, because if I had a accurate figure proportion it will show clear sizes of the outfit.

Dr. Heisenberg's Magic Mirror of Uncertainty, photographed for French Vogue in 1998 by Duane Michals. https://maxestrella.com/app/uploads/2020/10/heisenbergentero.jpg French Vogue contacted Michals one day in 1999 to ask if he could illustrate a piece on quantum physics for a special scientific edition of the magazine. Surprisingly, the subject turned out to be one of Michals' focus, as he was able to recite the names of subatomic particles. Michals bought a convex mirror in an antique store in Bath and bought it back to the US. He believed that he can use such a mirror to illustrate Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. He shot a set of six images in which the model was holding the huge mirror and showing different reflections of herself. He named the series of shots Dr Heisenberg’s Magic Mirror of Uncertainty. Different angles cause different changes in the appearance of the model. Even a tiny movement significantly altered how the model looked. Her eyes were sometimes enla...

Peter Pilotto: Fashion Sea Collection Research

I am looking at the Peter Pilotto 2012 spring collection for my fashion project. Peter Pilotto is a brand established in 2007 by Peter Piotto and Christopher  De Vos.  Their Spring 2012 undersea collection was inspired by their trip to Indonesia. Look 1: The outfit shows the theme of the underwater world by using sharp and slim waistline cutting. The fish scale-like pattern makes the model looks like a mermaid. The pencil skirt fits tightly to the body and looks like the tale of a mermaid. The cutting of the outfit looks like a fish and uses colours related to the underwater theme. The outfit looks eye-catching because the colour combination of the blue, purple and white colour gives the fish scales a textured look, which looks like they shimmer in the sun. The whole outfit looks sporty, the sleeveless top and the zipper in the middle of the top make it looks like a swimsuit. The design of the high heels have a dark blue colour scheme and with three crystal in the mi...
