Fashion and beauty illustration inspired by London, Milan, Paris fashion week SS18

As fashion month is going to an end. I am here to update some new fashion and beauty illustrations that I got inspired from fashion shows at London, Milan, and Paris. I truly love fashion month, not only we got to admire the collections from the most talented fashion designers around the world, but also the super creative looks from beauty/hair brands and artists at the backstage. To be honest, I get a little hooked from all those backstage beauty shoots on Instagram from Maybelline New York, Mac cosmetic, and Pat McGrath. 

The first one I did is inspired by House Of Holland at London fashion week. I used glitter pen, chalk markers, oil paint perns to create this.

This one was inspired by Francesco Scognamiglio SS18 at Milan Fashion Week. Watercolor and pastel are my main medium for this one. The make-up is so pretty, they use silver glitter as eyeshadows.

Fashion Sketches Inspired by New York Fashion Week SS18 season

It is fashion week once again, a feast of creativity in fashion and art. Fashion designers, bloggers, editors, buyers, even celebrities from all over the world get together to celebrate this festival twice a year! I could not stop creating fashion sketches inspired by them. I told to myself, I will treat this season of fashion week as an experiment. I am gonna get outside o my comfort zone to try different styles, mediums, and compositions and only following my heart instead of over thinking. Here are a few samples that I created this week. Please feel free let me know what do you think? 

Inspired by SelfPortrait SS18 collection, I use four different mediums, including markers, watercolor, color pencils, gouache to create four different outfits from the collection. I use Vogue Runway as my references.

Another one is for Anna Sui, she is one of my favorite Chinese American designers. Loving her bohemian style clothing so much! And the makeup was so pretty that I decide to do a piece that is more like a close-up collage. I use watercolor, paint pens to create and featuring GiGi Hadid, Taylor Hill.

Another painting is inspired by Marchesa. I sketch their collection every season since I started drawing NYFW back in 2014. Always love their extravagantly romantic style. I painted the model in gold to show a luxury feeling and use watercolors for the gowns.  I think watercolor always is my go to when it comes to illustrating very feminine materials.

Now, what do you think? As an illustrator, I have often been told you have to have a unique style. But I don't always draw things using one style and I think it is a good thing. I go with what my instinct told me to use, depends on the objects, my moods and what I think maybe for a fun effect. I don't limit myself to one type of medium. And I recommend you to do the same. Explore yourself, there is so much potential in you! 

Stay tuned on what I create next on Instagram. PS, I will explore more of what I can do ;-)
