Imagemakers by Martin Dawber
A radical change has occurred in the world of contemporary fashion illustration. No longer is fashion the reserve of the elite - with the rise in popularity of designer labels among the masses, designers are targeting a sector of the market that has been previously untapped. Concept drawings have become accessible and consumer-focussed with imagery deriving from popular culture, music videos, advertising, and popular magazines. Nothing has been published on this new phenomenon, and the time is ripe for a sourcebook for students and style aficionados on the current fashion scene. Martin Dawber presents the work of over 50 of the most exceptional new international illustrators, exploring their methods and influences alongside an insightful quote from the illustrator themselves. Includes contact details and website addresses for each illustrator.
Martin Dawber, fashion expert and Department Head of Fashion and Textile Design at Liverpool John Moores University. Author of Wish You Were Here, Jimmy Dean, Columbus Books, 1988. Consultant Editor for the Routledge Encyclopedia of Contemporary British Culture, 1999.
