Tavi Gevinson

By now you probably all know fashion blogger Tavi Gevinson. Personally I think she is awesome and I always enjoy reading her blog. She has a unique fashion sense and a great writing style.
I loved her iconic Stephen Jones hat at the Dior Couture show, and thought she looked perfect for the occasion, that and because the little controversy around it, that made it even more iconic, is why I choose it for this portrait.
Oh and also beacuse I am a little ashamed I drew so goddamn ugly when I rushed in to save her honor ;)

here's my sketch for the portrait:

Dior Spring 2010 Couture

This was my absolute favorite from Dior Spring 2010 couture!

Karl Lagerfeld

I thought it was time for some caricature for a change!

Valentino Pre-Fall 2010

Valentino Pre-Fall 2010 was so great, I really had a hard time to pick an outfit for my picture. I love how those rather simple, classic and really elegant desings work with the unusual materials like leather and sequin.
The sequin pants where fun to do, actually, even though they took forever!

Givenchy Pre-Fall 2010

the geometric black and white sixties inspired shapes at Givenchy pre-fall 2010 were amazing so I tried to reflct that with this graphic background.

Balenciaga Pre-Fall 2010

Balenciaga pre-fall 2010 was amazing! I loved the roundish square shaped clothes and the colored tights and the shoes look really cool (to bad you cant really see them the way they photographed the models)!
It all reminded me a bit of certain science fiction comic and manga designs, where I always looked at the clothing and thought, hey, that looks really cool, but there is no way any fabric will actually behave like this in reality - apparently I was wrong.

the outfit I picked - the model totally hated it, judging from her expression:

Lanvin Pre-Fall 2010

I love leopard print and Lanvin Pre-Fall 2010 had lots and lots of it! But this suit was my absolute favorite!
And yes, the leopard print in this picture is completely hand drawn by me.
(eidt: I added the path view to the sketch.)
