#DrawnToFashionJLG ...revisited!

9/5/2017

I literally cannot escape my love for fashion.  Even if I am hanging out in my polka dotted pajamas and over sized Chargers shirt-I am thinking about sequins.  Last year I decided to give in to my love for fashion illustration and just make a month of it and now, yup- revisiting that same theme!  

​'Cause fashions change every year, you know?

Before I re-invent the wheel, here is my blog post/series intro from last September:

...and here is my heART from last September;

These are my works from last September, same theme


​Because this year my current feeling is...

​​SAME.


​I knew I wanted to do something with fashion illustration again, but I wasn't sure if I was going to work from one designer's collection...or what.  So I started the month off with looks from my favorite show, Project Runway, because anything involving Tim Gunn (adopt me, Tim!) is ALWAYS a good choice;

Left, Brandon Kee's winning look and Right, Batani Khalfani's beautiful butterfly-esque garment, definitely a top look in my eyes!

​Then I headed over to one of my favorite places, Barnes and Noble, to look for inspiration from a stack of fashion magazines and a big ol' iced coffee.

I heard a voice in my head whisper 'treat yo'self' ever so softly...and what's the harm in listening to a voice in your head, right?! (slight twitch and eyes go crazed)  So I bought the September issue of Vogue.  (and two other magazines...hey, there was a hurricane heading towards FL, don't judge)  And I scurried home with my treasures.

Fun fact, I got a free vintage Vogue print bag since I bought that $10 magazine, yay!  Perfect for carrying around my paper, pens and paints for this month!  Ask if you go to B&N if they still have 'em!
​
Another fun fact- I didn't make it past the first few pages because the vintage vogue covers in the front captured my full attention! Then I started to think...what if I focused on those vintage covers, my interpretation of them anyways, for this take on being 'Drawn to Fashion'?!

​So, I made this;

Diary of a girl falling in love with Vogue all over again.

Well...the series just kinda developed from there.  I looked to the original image as the inspiration, obviously, but then put my own spin on it.  I thought it would be fun to incorporate the word 'Vogue' since that was the origin of the image, and I am trying my best to credit the photographers behind each iconic image, as well as the designers.

Here are some more of the first pieces;

...more to come!
