Obsessed with Yohji

I am sure you all  think i am trying to become Yamamoto's official illustrator!

I love his work A LOT and it is such a pleasure to illustrate.

Here an amazing coat from AW14, I would die to have this in my wardrobe.

A very cool all white look from the very cool Undercover AW14

Nice casual white trousers and great wrapping of (hopefully of fake) white fur.

It was fun to draw :) 

Here in pencil and marker. 

Exercise de style in black and white // Yohji Yamamoto AW14

I sort of lost focus for a few days and then decided to post a series of studies based on an outfit from Yamamoto AW14. here are a few variations.
I love the incredible volume of the coat and the dramatic black silhouette.

Str(angela)nd Loves // Ann Demeulemeester

This is a great outfit from Ann Demeulameester SS14.
I love a great black and white look, this style looks just like a pirate!
I illustrated it with my favorite medium : Ink and twig :)

Str(angela)nd Loves // Missoni

This dress by Missoni is absolutely stunning,  Ilove the plack and white simplicity, the movement and rhythm of the dress makes it really edgy and sophisticated yet it looks so easy to wear.
I gave it a nice black and white treatment with different sized marker pens.

Str(angela)nd Loves // Gareth Pugh

I haven't illustrated anything in ages, so going back slowly into the swing of things and playing around a bit to free my hand and spirit.

This is a model from Gareth Pugh amazing SS14 collection, I have always loved an all black look and the amazing head piece (or is it a fur hood) is just stunning!

I did this one pretty quickly, painting straight with the tube to get the main silhouette and adding face and detail afterwards.
