FASHION ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY: VALENTINO SPRING 2019 COUTURE
Hello darlings. Today I'm back with another fashion drawing. This time I was inspired by Valentino Spring 2019 couture collection. My verdict? Pierpaolo Piccioli has created a truly breath-taking collection! Have you per chance seen it? It's all over social media. I think it's great that people are getting that excited about couture fashion again. I do like couture fashion. The best couture collections always make you feel like you have stepped into a fairy tale. In addition, it is fascinating to see all those magnificent gowns, isn't it? I suppose part of couture's appeals lies into recreating that 'modern princess' feeling. When you look at a couture collection, you can be pretty sure that these are some carefully constructed garments. You know you're seeing gowns and creations that someone has put so much effort into. I do enjoy seeing couture collections mainly because they are often very theatrical, both in design and in feeling. It is not so much the dresses itself that I want to own, as much as I just enjoying seeing them. I suppose these dresses just give me that feeling of being lost in a fairy tale.
What about you? Do you like couture fashion? Who is your favourite couture designer? I'm not sure I have a favourite, but this Valentino collection has certainly caught my eye. The gorgeous silhouettes, the vibrant colours and the abundance of ruffles all joined to make me feel like I have stepped in fashion heaven. I should draw more of this collection! A lot of illustrators are drawing Naomi right now. She sure did look gorgeous in this Valentino couture show. I'm a nineties kid and Naomi Campbell is the first supermodel I ever remember hearing about. She was the super star in the nineties. As everyone else, I adored her. However, ever since I've learned of the fact that she has psychically attacked and injured so many women, I've never thought of her in the same way. I don't think someone should get away with something like that just because they are famous. Maybe that is why I've never illustrated her, even if I happen to think she's gorgeous. Instead I illustrated Adut Akech, who also happens to be the model of 2019. Doesn't she look like an angel in this pink gown? Such a beauty!

ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful illustration of a beautiful dress! While it's definitely not something I'd wear, I find coture rearely is. It's certainly a colour I'd wear, I love that bold shade of pink! :)
ReplyDeleteI am jealous you have more than one closet for clothes! I share a wardrobe with my husband. it is a big one in the master bedroom, but I still only have half of it. I had to install one of those extra rails to give myself two rails to hang things, haha! Or it would be even more overflowing than it is now!
Hope that your week is going well and you have a nice weekend ahead of you :)
