how cool are these fashion illustrations that

tobie giddio made for showstudio back in 2013

as a visual report on some of the s/s '14

nyfw fashion shows.

you can actually buy the originals

here at showstudio.

i totally like the idea of making fashion illustrations

with charcoal. At least for me it sounds like a great

idea maybe even as a transition from academic

charcoal studies or sketches into fashion

illustration. i think i gotta try this.

also, i remember having seen mats

(gustafsson, that is) illos also

executed in charcoal.

if you are interested, you can take a glimpse

at some of my old croquis from school:
