My friend Emily and I have been challenging each other to draw period and vintage clothes based on photo reference, and the results are cataloged in a tumblr for as long as we keep it up. Check it out!
I want to 'like' and 'love' and 'fave' and 'holy cow this is so awesome' everything you two have drawn there so much that I might have to start a tumblr?
It would be really swell if maybe followers could suggest dresses that you could draw? anyways, here a cool dress that I had the privilege of actually seeing... valentino.. ;] http://brisbanefashion.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/valentino.jpg
everything looks so great! so charming - not just the garments, but the poses, characters and colors, too! i love your style, AND vintage... wonderful combo.
i realized how awesome vintage can be back in 2004, in an international exhibit in Brazil documenting 100 years of fashion - this is the best link to photos i could find, maybe there's some inspiration there: http://moda.terra.com.br/fotos/0,,OI13511-EI1119,00.html
I'm really digging your most recent contribution of the Lanvin dress with the two torso girl. Is there any chance one might be able to purchase a print?
Luv your work!
ReplyDeleteWooooW! These drawings are amazing! Are you thinking about having guests artists? It looks like so much fun!

ReplyDeleteThis is a super cool project. I love seeing all the pretty dresses and the characters you two conjure up to go with them.
ReplyDeletecuuuuute!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cool idea!
ReplyDeleteI have such a soft spot for vintage stuff.. Almost as soft as the spot I have from being dropped repeatedly during childhood.
It all looks awesome, Vera!
ReplyDeleteI guess you and Emily Carroll WOULD be pals. ; p
Amazing!!! What brush do you use?
ReplyDeleteLove your stuff, and that idea is the coolest! Such fun drawings!
ReplyDeleteHi.
ReplyDeleteYour works are so cute. I love your stuff.
May you say to me what kind of tools you use to draw?
Real paintbrush? Wacom pen? Do you sketch directly con Photoshop or something else?
Thank you very much.
