FASHION ILLUSTRATION SUNDAY: CASABLANCA FALL 2022 READY-TO-WEAR COLLECTION

 Hello readers! Thank you for your comments on my last fashion illustration post. Since you liked my rendering of look 3 from Casablanca Ready-to-Wear Fall 2022 collection, you might be happy to learn that I decided to illustrate another look from this collection. Moreover, I illustrated it in the same elongated style (and on the same page in my sketchbook).  This time I opted for the fifth look (7/71) consisting from a matching (white/red/blue) bomber jacket and a mini skirt. The colour palette for this design look echoes the national (and flag) colours of many a European country. France's flag is blue, white and red. As this is a French brand, this colour palette might be more than a coincidence. I'm a lover of colour in general but this combination of colours is especially appealing. I particularly enjoy the bright tonalities of red and blue, for example Ferrari red and sky blue. Plus, it's nice to see so much white in a Fall collection. If you remember my last illustrated look (third look from the collection), it was also a vibrant mix of white, red and blue shades.  Another thing these two illustrated outfits have in common is that I'm getting retro vibes from both of them. Scroll down to see and read more.




I took my time with this illustration. How much time? I didn't time myself but I spent a bit more time than usual sketching this look. Maybe an hour in total. I remember I worked on shadows and details. I enjoyed illustrating the shadow belonging to the blue bag.  It was definitely a fun outfit to illustrate. My husband really liked how this fashion illustration turned out. He told me I should frame it. Who knows, maybe I will.  I do enjoy doing this kind of artistic fashion illustration. Ever since I started doing fashion illustration as a kid (so a few decades ago!) I was always attracted to a more artistic rendering of clothes. Another thing I always wanted to do is to have my own style when it came to fashion illustration.

MAKING OF A WATERCOLOUR PENCIL FASHION ILLUSTRATION
Bellow you can see the process of making this Casablanca look five  (from Autumn/ Fall 2022 TRW collection) fashion illustration, from sketching to painting. You might also notice that I drew this one next to another Casablanca fashion illustration (look 3) that I showed you in my last post. 




REFERENCE USED FROM VOGUE- CASABLANCA FALL 2022 COLLECTION

It seems this brand is focused on sport aesthetic, on their page is is written that 'Casablanca is a modern reimagining of the timeless apres-sport aesthetic". I cannot say that I dress 'sporty' on everyday basis (when do I ever dress sporty?) yet something about this collection caught my eye (otherwise I wouldn't decide to illustrate it). I think it's mostly the combination of immaculate tailoring and an attractive colour palette. Isn't it amazing how tailoring can make even sporty items look couture? 
As, I explained, I'm not very familiar with Casablanca brand. This is what I managed to find about this brand online: "Casablanca comes to life in a palette that simultaneously evokes the clay courts of Stade Roland Garros and the sunbaked terracotta of North Africa; accented with fresh tennis whites and pops of pastel. Sportswear inspired silhouettes are refined but relaxed, and presented in crisp cotton and plush terrycloth. Casablanca’s aesthetic is a fusion between lux and leisurewear, a perfect equilibrium of comfort and elegance. Casablanca re-interprets timeless environments of a luxurious heritage hotel suite or a crisp glass of champagne at a private country club terrace sunset. By adding a vivacity of colour keeps the brand youthful and easily inserted into a plethora of daily living. Applying Neapolitan tailoring techniques to tennis inspired statement pieces. Casablanca offers pieces for wearing when the days exertions are done, but the night has not yet begun. Those magical hours, marked by their sense of ease and heady anticipation, can be the most decadent part of the day. It’s a combination that belies the rich dual heritage of Casablanca’s French-Moroccan founder, Charaf Tajer." * quoted from Casablanca



Before we wrap this post up, here are two more photographs of these two fashion illustrations. How do you like them? Do you have a favourite? Would you wear something like this? 

Thank you for visiting, reading and/or commenting. Have a nice day!

      Thank you Vix. It made me think of the same thing. When I was a flight attendant we wore a bright red uniform that was a bit similar to this (but with a blazer instead of a bomber jacket).

    That is very cool - these really have a 70s vibe about them, picking up the Mod influences from the 60s.

The heart of a woman (an outfit post and a book recommendation / Srce žene (odjevna objava i preporuka knjige)

Image
  The Heart of a Woman   is a memoir by Maya Angelou. The events she describes in this book take place between 1957 and 1962 and in that sense this book is a continuation of her previous memoirs.  I do admire her courage when it comes to blending literature with autobiography. It is not an easy task and only a few have really gotten away with it. To narrate one's life, any period of it, in such an intimate way demands great courage, but turning that narration into a literature takes a kind of discipline and self restraint only great writers have, thought people generally don't realize how hard writing on this level really is. Years ago, I found a quote by Maya that really moved me but instead of looking her up immediately, I decided to wait. My intuition told me that a book by her will arrive at the perfect moment. Having read doctor Martin Luther King's autobiography earlier this year put many events in context. However, this memoir is much more than a sum of events, it i

PLUS 30 WAYS TO WEAR A BABY BLUE DRESS AND LEOPARD HEELS (OUTFIT POST, MOSTAR)

Image
 Hello! In this post, I'll share a sustainable baby blue and leopard spring styling. A pale blue might not be the first choice with leopard, but why not? For me leopard print is sort of a classic. I actually love to pair it with all kinds of colours, from more vibrant ones to pales ones. In the past, I paired it with cobalt blue . I definitely do not feel that leopard should be worn only with neutral colours. I mean I paired leopard with white, grey and black clothing items often enough, but I love to pair it with something that pops, be it a coloured or pattern item. I do love patterns. So, it's not surprising that I love to mix patterns.  Back to my baby blue & leopard outfit. I wore it for an outing and I really enjoyed it. The best about is that it is sustainable. What do I mean by sustainable? Well,  I mean that I not only shopped my closet, but wore most of these items more than thirty times. Mostar is so beautiful in Spring, isn't it? I love strolling the city an

Sights to see, places to visit / Znamenitosti za vidjeti, mjesta za posjetiti -----Goranci

My Sights to see, places to visit feature would surely be missing something if I didn't include this little village Goranci in the list of places to visit. This charming little village is situated in the vicinity of Mostar.  I love to go there to espace the city heat.  If you are into cycling, you'd be happy to hear that you can rent a bike for free. You just need to leave your ID in the restaurant Goranci and you can take the bike. There is a wonderful cycling and pedestrian walk so be sure to check it out. As of recently, there is also a beautiful park at your disposal. This park is growing daily as new things are added to it(toys for kids and that sorts of stuff). If you look closely, you'll be able to see that some decorative trees are still being planted at the enterance to this park.  You can read some of my previous posts about this village here , here and here .

Fashion Illustration Friday: Inspired by Colours of Autum

Time for another Fashion Illustration Friday talk. We'll talk autumn and share some new autumn inspired fashion illustrations & outfits. Autumn is a season with one of the most beautiful colour palettes. Just think about all those gorgeous gold and red leaves! Even the fruits of Autumn are visually stunning, for example the delicious and juicy fruits such as pomegranates and grapes. With so much to appeal to our senses, it's hard not to be appreciative of autumn. It is a stunning season indeed, so small wonder I was inspired to create some fashion art. Scroll down to see and read more.  AUTUMN COLOUR COMBOS TO CONSIDER Besides enjoying the colours of autumn, I sure love wearing colour in autumn, and that's what I'll write about today. Whether we're talking about accessories or clothes, a bit of colour can take us a long way. Here are some illustrated & photographed colour combos to consider.

What To See and Do in Hutovo Blato Nature Park in Summer? Exploring Bosnia and Herzegovina's Hidden Gems #1

Image
What you know, Europe still has its fair share of secret spots! Seeing these photographs, you'd think I was somewhere in a tropical jungle of some sorts, but you'd be wrong as these images were taken in Hutovo blato , a nature park and bird reservoir located in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is quite close to border with Croatia, so if you're visiting our Adriatic coast, do consider stopping by here as well.  Hutovo Blato is mostly composed of marshlands (wetlands) and it is a stunning natural area to visit. The photographs I'm sharing today were taken a year ago, the last time I visited this bird & nature park during summer. My visits to this nature park have been numerous indeed. The reasons for that is very simple: I really like it there. So, today I wanted to share with you all the things I love about this park and inform you about all the fun things you can do there during the summer. In case you don't already know about it, Hutovo Blato has a lot to offer. T

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

The Magic of Nature Park Hutovo Blato: Must See Places in Herzegovina

Image
I've been living as an expat in Bosnia and Herzegovina for almost a decade now. During this rather long period of time, I've discovered many wonderful places that I learned to treasure and appreciate. I wrote about most of them here in this little place I can my own. Still, some places are more special than others. It is hard to say why. Some reasons remain mysterious of the heart. Maybe life is more interesting that way. We don't always have to know everything. Sometimes we fall in love with places just the way we fall in love with people. All I can say is that Hutovo Blato is one of those special places. I've fallen in love with it during my first visit. Maybe it's the sea child in me that's feeling (and missing) the Adriatic? After all, the Adriatic is not far from here. That's what I felt on my first visit: a fascination with how familiar this place felt. Since then, I've been a pretty regular visitor. In many ways this nature park feels absol

I decided to wear my new Peko shoes because I wanted to check whether they can be worn without tights (as one does in Summer)....and I'm happy to announce they've passed the test! I plan to wear them this Summer. That's going to be all, folks. I won't write much today, because yesterday I attended a wedding...and if you don't understand why I'm so tired, you probably never attendad a Slavic wedding....and no, this was not my wedding outfit.

OZZ STUDENTS' FASHION SHOW, MENTOR FASHION DESIGNER STANKA ZOVKO (MOSTAR INTERNATIONAL FAIR)

Image
EN  Hello! Today I'm happy to share with you a wonderful fashion show I attended last Friday at Mostar International Fair. As you might remember, I regularly visit Mostar International Fair.  Anyhow, this time I was there to see and support a  really special fashion show. This fashion show showed creations from students who attended a fashion sewing and design course held by designer Stanka Zovko. If you remember, a few years back  I attended this sewing and design course myself. I was invited to present my creations as well. I couldn't participate myself this year due to previous engagements, but who knows maybe next year I'll get the chance. How amazing would it be to participate as a fashion designer? Still, I'm sure you can imagine how excited I was just to  attend this fashion show and see all the designs.  It was such a terrific experience. HR Zdravo!
