NOW, WE KNOW I LOVE A FASHION SHOW FROM THE BLONDS, BUT THIS YEAR? GHUUURL! WE HAD ALIENS AND VULCANS AND TWEETY BIRDS! OH MY! THEIR ODE TO ALL THINGS YELLOW AND PLATINUM AND, WELL, BLOND HAD ME APPLAUDING AT MY COMPUTER SCREEN. THE DELICATELY BEADED CORSETS WERE ON POINT, AS ALWAYS, BUT THE BRIGHT CANARY YELLOW ONE SHOW AT LEFT MIGHT JUST BE MY FAV! THE ONLY THING BETTER THAT A OVER-SIZED MIRABEAU BUSTLE SKIRT IS A GIANT OVER-SIZED HAIR BUN!

NOW, I WONDER IF THEY MAKE THAT CORSET IN MY SIZE . . .?

(p.s. This is my 200th post! Hurray me!!!)

BLURRED (color) LINES

I'VE BEEN SO BUSY W/ WORK LATELY I HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO DO MUCH DRAWING, BUT FASHION WEEK ALWAYS INSPIRES ME TO PUT PENCIL TO PAPER. JEREMY SCOTT IS ALWAYS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS AND THIS YEAR IS NO EXCEPTION. HE'S ONE OF THE FEW DESIGNERS THAT STILL SHOWS A FUN COLLECTION!

THIS TV TEST PATTERN PRINT DRESS WAS MY FAVORITE LOOK FROM HIS S/S 2014 COLLECTION. IT HAD MATCHING GO-GO BOOTS, SUN GLASSES & A CLUTCH. I SAW IT & DREW IT ASAP TO MAKE SURE I'VE DRAW AT LEAST 1 OF THE GOOD LOOKS FROM NYC FASHION WEEK.

THE GREAT DAISY

I WAS WATCHING THE 1974 FILM ADAPTION OF THE F. SCOTT FITZGERALD NOVEL "THE GREAT GATSBY" LATE AT NIGHT NOT TOO LONG AGO. I HAD JUST SEEN THE NEWER BAZ LUHRMANN VERSION OF THE BOOK AND WANTED TO REVISIT THE VERSION THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY BEST KNOWN. I PAUSED ON THIS IMAGE OF STAR MIA FARROW AS DAISY BUCHANNAN NERVOUSLY SIPPING HER CHAMPAGNE AND SKETCHED IT IMMEDIATELY. I INKED AND PHOTO SHOPPED IT THIS PAST WEEKEND, AND EVEN WATER COLORED UP A TREE FOR THE BACKGROUND. I'M SO PROUD OF THE WAY IT TURNED OUT. I THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST PIECES I HAVE EVER DONE. I HOPE YOU GUYS LIKE IT TOO!

GIRLS OF SUMMER

I'VE DONE ANOTHER SET OF 5 DRAWINGS FOR MTV.COM's 'GUY CODE BLOG'. THE THEME OF THIS WEEK'S LOST WAS "THE GIRLS YOU'LL SEE AT THE PARK THIS SUMMER. YOU CAN SEE THE ORIGINAL POST BY CLICKING . . . HERE!!!

CLASSIC CHIC

I DREW THIS AFTER I SAW A PICTURE OF A BEAUTIFUL VINTAGE ARNOLD SCAASI COAT FROM 1959. YELLOWISH-GOLD SILK W/ A FLORAL PRINT AND MATCHING GLOVES. I ALSO WANTED TO EXPERIMENT W/ HALF-TONE DOT PRINTS, LIKE FROM OLD COMIC BOOKS. IT TURNED OUT OK, SO NOW I GOTTA TRY IT OUT ON A SUPER-HERO PIECE.

HERE KITTY KITTY

I'M ALWAYS ON THE LOOKOUT FOR PICTURES OF CLOTHING MADE BY MY FAVORITE DESIGNER THIERRY MUGLER. IT'S NOT AS EASY AS YOU'D THINK! I STUMBLED ACROSS A GIF MADE OF THE A/W 1982 MUGLER SHOW FEATURING SOME FABULOUS MODELS IN CAT-SUITS. I GOT TO DRAWING RIGHT AWAY! I USED THE SAME BODY AND CHANGED UP THE ARMS AND FACES. I HAVE A FEELING I'LL BE RE-DRAWING THESE FASHION KITTIES OVER AND OVER.
