fashion illustrations

Clothing design artwork

Fashion illustrations are drawings or paintings depicting clothing designs, often with stylized human figures.

Unlike technical garment sketches, fashion illustrations emphasize mood, movement, and artistic interpretation: Her fashion illustrations captured the drama of the runway.

The form flourished in magazine advertising before photography dominated, and remains important in design portfolios and editorial work.
