Prabal Gurung Resort 2018 Collection (fashion illustration of the day/ modna ilustracija dana)

To be completely honest,  until recently I had no idea who Prabal Garun was. It is quite possible that I saw his designs before (because he is favoured by many celebs and all that), but I haven't put the name and the dress together- if you know what I mean.  However, when I saw his Resort Collection featured in British Vogue, I just fall in love. This collection is so feminine and chic, but at the same time simple, timeless and non pretentious. All the designs from this collection look very sophisticated. Long story short, I loved it so much I had to do at least one illustration. The medium is pencil again, (or to be more precise it's colour pencils) on paper.

Da budem posve iskrena, do prije neki dan nisam imala pojma tko je Prabal Garun. Sasvim je moguće da sam vidjela njegove kreacije prije (jer ga zvijezde često nose i tako to), ali nekako nisam spojila ime i haljinu, ako znate na što mislim. No, kada sam vidjela njegovu Resort kolekciju za 2018 u Britanskom Vogue-u, jednostavno sam se zaljubila. Ta je kolekcija tako ženstvena i lijepa, ali u isto vrijeme jednostavna, bezvremenska i nepretenciozna. Sve kreacije iz ove kolekcije izgledaju jako sofisticirano. Da skratim priču, toliko mi se svidjela da sam morala nacrtati  barem jednu ilustraciju. Medij je opet olovka (to jest da budem preciznija bojicesu u pitanju) na papiru.

    Dear Ivana, I have to admit that when I read and watched this post I read the first time the name Parbal Gurung (at least in a conscious way). I really love your drawing and would love to wear this adorable dress right now! Thanks a lot for sharing and enjoy the new week <3

    I'm a big fan of Prabal Gurung's work. His designs are very feminine and wearable as is the look you decided to illustrate. You did a great job capturing the movement of the ruffles. I would wear this dress in a heartbeat ;p

    Dear Ivana, I am back! Yes, I needed some time off, but now I am returning! So good to be here again! And so good to see your amazing illustration based on Prabal Gurung! He is famous, but no one has to know all collections and designers, so never mind! I don't know many designers, either, just to day I got to know a new one :) Hope you are fine and glad to be here again! Many hugs!

    Beautiful drawing!! You are becoming more and more skillful, Ivana! And I love the way you mirrored your drawing with the photo - with that beautiful light! Very creative!

    I didn't know who Prabal Gurung was until he had a collaboration with Lane Bryant this past Spring, which is one my go-to brands, and I love their designers' collaborations. My striped dress that I wore just recently on the blog is from Prabal Gurung, and I have to say he really gets femininity. His pieces have magic! I loved one of his past years collections with bright colors inspired by his native culture, I believe. It would be awesome if he had another collab with LB in bright colors. It's not that often when talented designers create collections for plus size women, so they are especially treasured.

      I'm happy you told me that. Femininity is the exact word I would use to describe his designs.

    You did again a great job on this one, Ivana. I love his design and this dress is divine, I love the easy femininity and as I said in the above you've captured it very well. You are still on a roll and I try to catch up on all your work, Ivana.

All your comments mean a lot to me, even the criticism. Naravno da mi puno znači što ste uzeli vrijeme da nešto napišete, pa makar to bila i kritika. Per me le vostre parole sono sempre preziose anche quando si tratta di critiche.

THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)

Image
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern  novel  follows two  story lines and uses framed narration.  The Island of Missing Trees  tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter.  This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story.   The Island of Missing Trees is   set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological .  The story jumps back and forth, following two main timelines, one set in moder

FORGIVENESS DAY BY URSULA K. LE GUIN (BOOK REVIEW AND AN AUTUMN STYLING)

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! How are you today? I'm back with another Ursula K. Le Guin book review. In this post, I'll review " Forgiveness Day" , a science fiction novella that is a part of the Hainish Circle. Published in 1995, "Forgiveness Day " won multiple awards. This novella is often published together with her other novellas from the Hainish Circle, and it can be find in various editions of Four Ways to Forgiveness and Five Ways to Forgiveness.   Thematically, this novella is a part of five stories featuring two Hainish planets, but it can definitely be read on its own. I think it functions well as a stand alone novella. I listened to it in audio form, and I didn't have any problems following the story.  The world building is simple and effective. The author fills us in about the history of the two planets as the story enfolds. For such a short work of prose, this novella is really impressive in that it manages to explore the theme o

SUPPORTING LOCAL DESIGNERS IN MOSTAR: TRANSITIONAL AUTUMN STYLING WITH OZZ BRAND

Hello readers and fellow bloggers! In this post, I'll share two transitional outfits featuring a lilac skirt from fashion designer Stanka Zovko. If you're a regular reader of this blog, you've probably seen this skirt before. Afterall, I'm really good at shopping my closet. I've been wearing this lilac skirt a lot in the past few months. It's also a great piece for transitional weather because it can be easily layered, or dressed up and down.  Supporting local designers and artisans is certainly something that pays off in the long run. If you want to own unique pieces and at the same time, support your local community, you should really explore shopping local, or commissioning local artisans and designers.  Sustainability in fashion is a big topic nowadays! However, sometimes I feel like people make it more complicated than it really is. We should go back to our origins. Explore vintage, second hand and local shopping.

MALTA HIKING TALES (PART FIVE) GHAJN TUFFIEFA AND QUARABBA BAY

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! I'm back with another Malta themed post. Recently I posted a painting inspired by Malta. As some of you might remember, I visited Malta a few years ago, but I only blogged about it last April, when I published a series of post on Malta. My series about Malta isn't finished, though. In fact, today we're going to continue it. Considering my stay on Malta was two weeks long, it deserves more than a couple of posts. There is a lot to see and do on Malta. It's a small island, but one that's filled with so much life and beauty. Although Malta faces some problems caused by fast tourism, it remains an unique and magical island.  In this post, I'll take you to the bays I visited while hiking on Malta. One of them (Ghajn Tuffieha Bay) is the one I painted. You can visit that post by clicking on the link below: TRAVEL WITH MY ART #43, GHAJN TUFFIEHA BAY, MALTA LET'S START WITH THE GOLDEN BAY We actually didn't go all the way

THE ANT AND THE GRASSHOPPER, A SHORT STORY BY W. SOMERSET MAUGHAM

Image
Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! Welcome November! We'll welcome this new month with a blog review. In this post, I'll share my review for Maugham's short story titled T he Ant and the Grasshopper . This post will also be  a reading recommendation because I enjoyed this story a great deal. I've been reading Maugham's The Complete Short Stories for some time now. I've been taking my time with this collection, but I enjoyed it a lot. When I finish this book in its entirely, I'll share a review for all of his stories. Until then, I'll keep posting individual reviews of stories I liked the most. If you want to read Maugham yourself, you can find his collected works online (among other places  on project Gutenberg ) and read them for free.  W. Somerset Maugham is a writer whose subtle use of humour is delightful, but sometimes it's easy to miss it just because it's so subtle. He's wonderful at mixing the harsh realities of life with clever

FASHION ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY WATERCOLOUR: LONG DRESSES AND DE PROFUNDIS QUOTES!

Image
 Hello dear readers and fellow bloggers! It's almost ten. I've had a long week and I'm quite tired and sleepy. However, I'll try to wrap this post up for you tonight. What kind of post? Well, a post about art. Fashion art to be more precise.  I've been on a roll lately with my art posts. After a period of not posting my art at all, due to a variety of reasons, I started posting my art in every post. I got back to my destination art series, and now it's time for another post in my fashion art series. Friday Fashion Illustration  is somewhat of a regular feature on my blog. Today I'll share two watercolour pencil fashion illustrations of mine. I sketched both of them this Summer in my A3 mixed media sketchbook. I sketched the long yellow dress first, and then the blue and read one. The medium for both of them is watercolour pencils on paper, the same brand I always use. I find watercolour pencils to be quite practical, especially for sketching. I often use the
