Wildfox Model Sketches

Aren't these model sketches by Kimberly from Wildfox great? Not only is Kimberly a fashion designer extraordinaire but also a talented illustrator with a very distinctive style. She also makes cute model paper dolls. Check out her work here and enjoy!

Beautiful illustrations by Julia Denos

I'm a huge fan of Julia Denos' gorgeous illustrations. To me they are just perfect and should all be hanging on my living room wall. Julia draws very pretty girls among other things, but I especially love her Audrey Hepburn illustrations in the wonderful book Just Being Audrey. I hope someone buys it for me for my birthday! I love Audrey and Julia depicts her perfectly. See more on Julia's site here.

My New Favorite Sketchbook: Fashionary!

As some of you may know, I work for an online game where I, among other things, design clothes for our characters, making me basically a digital fashion designer. I love designing clothes and I make tons of sketches every week when making our collections. This brings me to the wonder of my recent discovery: Fashionary! It's a sketchbook for fashion designers and illustrators and it's absolutely amazing. It has lots of info on garments, measurements, proportions etc. but best of all it has faded figure outlines on every page. This makes it soooo easy to design consistent outfits and items, and the outlines are so thin that you can draw other things on the pages without them messing up your sketches. It's simple and easy and I just can't seem to put it down. You can either get a version with female figures or with men. I'd highly recommend Fashionary if fashion drawing is something you love like I do!
