Description and Table of Contents
Description
Drawing Fashion celebrates a unique collection of some of the most remarkable fashion illustrations from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. These original works define the fine art of illustrating fashion, from the collections of Chanel, Dior, Comme des Garcons and Poiret as well as Victor and Rolf, Lacroix and McQueen. This catalogue, which accompanies the exhibition at the Design Museum in London, showcases fashion illustrators at their creative heights: Lepape at the beginning of the century, Gruau in the 40's and 50's, Antonio throughout the 60s, 70s and 80s, to current artists Mats Gustafson, Aurore de La Morinerie and Francois Berthoud. The illustrations reflect not only the spirit and the style of the decades but also the wider social and cultural changes of the century.
