I am so happy to see the positive response to my Redrawn post last week! I was a little nervous to share what I had drawn but the comments and tweets throughout this past week have really sustained me and given me confidence. Fashion illustration is a genre I haven’t really had much experience in, and considering that I’m redrawing runway fashions on to bodies that have very different proportions, I’m experiencing a level of challenge that is both delightful and nourishing as well as a bit brow-furrowing at times (but mostly really empowering, yep.)
Ariel requested some Marc Jacobs in the comments last week so I had to submit to her sweet demand because she is super lovely and kick arse. Upon looking through the last few collections I was totally on board the Marc Jacobs train and left pondering why on earth these looks weren’t made for plus sizes because they would look frelling amazing. Marianne linked me to a couple of looks she particularly liked, and I loved one of them so much I had to include it (on the right). The horizontally striped dress spoke to me… It said, “Natalie, I am begging to be rocked by a fat lady. DOOOOO ITTTT!”
And thusly I did it.
Next week I might look into Rick Owens. Y? Any other suggestions?
