Resort 2011, Part 12

[Below] Thakoon always uses amazing printed fabrics.


[Below] I am continually impressed with Monique Lhuillier's ability to bring together sophistication, femininity, and sex appeal.



In my eyes, this evening gown is completely perfect. Megan Fox needs to wear this dress on the red carpet ASAP.

Bill Donovan

One of my favorite illustrators, Bill Donovan, is coming out with a new book in September. It's an instruction manual for fashion drawing and it is filled with Donovan's beautiful images. He offers step-by-step guides for illustrating fabric and figures.

The book also features illustrations by Carlos Aponte, Cecilia Carlstedt, John Galliano, Pablo Lobato, and Robert Risko plus many more.

I can't wait to get my hands on a copy!

Resort 2011, Part 11

[Below] Marc Jacobs' collection had almost a cartoon-like element due to his use of bold graphics and interesting shapes.



[Below] I could not be more obsessed with Louis Vuitton's resort collection. I can just picture a woman traveling in the south of France wearing these items.
