Painting on Versace

If I was a designer...

Fashion illustrations of two outfits I'd like to be wearing this summer. 

I've recently finished my university degree in fashion with promotion and communication. I would have loved to have studied fashion design and it would be an amazing career that I could express my creative side through, but the actual creation of the garments put me off the idea. I do (luckily) love illustration, so at least I can show you my fashion design/style ideas.

A summer of mesh/netting, monochrome, turquoise and prints.

Nets & Mesh

 

The past couple of weeks I have began to notice garments made from net or mesh creep into fashion imagery and high street railers. Netted items previously associate with tack have now changed their appearance and are now becoming a micro trend. 

How to wear netting this summer? Maybe a large netted top thrown over your bikini? A mesh long sleeve shirt layered under a simple top? A leather skirt underneath a sheet of netting in the same colour? Endless possibilities... Be creative and mix it up how you like!
