There are people who do not need words to communicate. They speak a different language. Made of black ink or pantone. Pencil or watercolor. This depends on the artist. The blank sheet of paper becomes a stage for countless scenarios. If you say Fashion and Illustration you mean all of their world. Glamorous, trendy with a retro taste…Set in a Paris in the thirties’… a feminine woman with heels 12 … with a feather on her head and a bow at the ankle … lost without a Chanel lipstick … alone without her puppy and her suitcase … destination: Paris, New York, Tokyo or Milan?!?…it doesn’t matter … because sometimes it’s important to leave, it just doesn’t care to where.
Ci sono persone che non hanno bisogno di parole per comunicare. Loro parlano un’altra lingua. Fatta di china nera o pantone. Di matita o inchiostro. Questo dipende dall’artista. Il foglio bianco diventa il teatro di infiniti scenari possibili. Dire Moda e dire Illustrazione significa raccontare in due parole il loro mondo. Glamour, trendy con quell’aria un po’ retro …una Parigi anni trenta…una donna femminile e in tacco 12…con una piuma in testa e un fiocco alla caviglia…persa senza un rossetto di Chanel…e sola senza il suo cucciolo e la sua valigia…destinazione: Parigi, New York, Tokyo o Milano…non importa…perché a volte basta partire non importa per dove.

I love it!!!
It’s lovely, you are right! ❤
Drawing is it’s own language, like dressing and designing. It can be subtle and or deliberate and bold. So often it’s hard to get the same effect with words, vero? xox
Words are sometimes too redondant. They leave for too Many possible interpretations. Drawing is more direct. It goes straight to the soul!
Esatto! Preferisco disegnare….te? x
Bellisimos Mari!!! Drawing is a way of expression 🙂
Sometimes a line on a paper can be’ stronger Than one thousands words!

Those illustrations are adorable!!! and I love the quote “because sometimes it’s important to leave, it just doesn’t care to where”
These illustrations are amazing! I’m not adept at drasing and I really admire this kind of art!
Re: “room for lies”. Pablo Picasso said “Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his (or her) lies.”
Cool, pictures and drawings says a Thousand words… 🙂
