As an artist, I believe that fashion illustrations are a beautiful way to showcase the latest trends and styles in the fashion industry. They allow us to see clothing in a new light and to appreciate the creativity and artistry that goes into designing a garment. Every artist has their own unique style and perspective when it comes to creating fashion illustrations.
The inspiration behind the piece came from the infamous chess board, with futuristic silhouettes and a bit of flair. I used Copic markers, Micron fine liners, and smooth bristol paper to create intricate details and vivid colors that bring the outfits to life.
One of the most striking features of this illustration is the varied scales of the chess pattern in each look. I used transparent panels to provide contrast to the stark black and white pattern. The pattern creates a futuristic feel, which is further emphasized by the edginess and riskiness of each outfit. My goal was to make each outfit feel both accessible and daring.
The fashion industry is constantly evolving, and fashion illustrations are a fantastic way to capture and showcase the latest trends. The In Check fashion illustration is a prime example of how an artist can take inspiration from everyday objects and turn them into something unique and stylish.
