Every dress begins with a drawing, every skirt with a sketch.
Illustration is an integral element of fashion design; a starting point
for creation, a means of expressing the moods, emotions, and experiences
carried by garments—yet is too often overlooked. Through stark tones
and serendipitous smudges, fashion illustrators breathe life into trends
and seasons.
In this new, compact edition, you’ll find works from 90 contemporary
artists located all around the world, including Ruben Toledo, Aurore de
La Morinerie, Bil Donovan, Tanya Ling, and Jean-Philippe Delhomme.
Following an introduction by illustration expert Steven Heller, art and
fashion historian Adelheid Rasche provides an in-depth exploration of
clothing illustration, beginning in the 17th century and stretching
forward to today...
Each illustrator is profiled through sumptuous reproductions of their
work and quotes describing their individual approaches. These are
interspersed by commentary and praise from renowned experts and icons in
the field of fashion, including Valentino, Maison Martin Margiela,
Christian Dior, Louis Vuitton, and H&M.
Illustration Now! is your essential work of reference to the world’s
latest, most exciting artists. The series’ easy-to-navigate A-Z entries
