Vintage Fashion Illustration!

Drop in drawing class hosted by Paper Dress Drawing Salon

We will be drawing from a live model, starting with the basics of fashion illustration including proportion, weight and balance.

The class will focus on the fashions within a specific decade, looking at the characteristics of the styles, such as silhouette, waistline, hemline etc. In this class we will be working with some beautiful Kimonos, with looks inspired by the early 20th century.

We will explore a range of short and longer poses through a variety of observation techniques and rendition exercises designed to suit the era of the fashions covered in the class.

£12 in advance / £15 on the door
All levels welcome – no previous experience necessary
