La Vie A Deux



This week's blog is about..you guessed it fashion! I pulled this piece from a book called By Hand: Handmade elements in graphic design. By Hand is an archive of pieces by various designers which include collages, illustrations, and typography, all pulled together by Pie Books. When looking over the illustrations there are minimal captions. In Japanese. Therefore I cannot declare exactly what each depicts only infer. However, I do know the above image is of a hand drawn dress by Akiko Matsumura. The reason I have two pictures is because I want you to note the detail she inhibited while drawing this dress. What attracted me to the above piece was the kind of embellishments she illustrated and how well it paints the paints the picture of what the apparel company sells. It is a one of a kind and very adorned.
