Next, let's take a look at the historical development process of fashion illustration, a "fashion demon" with a history of 500 years.
1. The beginning of fashion illustration
Fashion illustration began in the16th century, when global exploration and discovery led people to be fascinated by the clothes of people all over the world. Books explaining different social classes and cultures are printed to help eliminate the fear of change and the social unrest caused by these findings.
Between 1520 and 16 10, more than 200 kinds of such prints, etchings or woodcuts were published, including the drawing boards of people wearing specific nationalities or grades. These are the earliest clothing illustrations and the prototype of modern fashion illustrations. These illustrations are likely to be used by fashion designers, tailors and their customers to inspire new design inspiration.
/kloc-artists JacquesCallot and AbrahamBosse in the 0/7th century used modern carving techniques to make realistic clothes and details of the times.
These periodicals have been published in France and Britain since the1670s, and are considered as the earliest fashion magazines, including Lemecure Gallant, The Lady's Magazine, LagalleriedesModes, LecabinetdesModes and LeJournaldesDamesetdesModes. During this period, the number of published periodicals has increased, which is a response to female readers who are increasingly eager to know the latest fashion news in the market. It was not until the end of 18 and the beginning of 19 that male style illustration became as important as female illustration.
2./kloc-the fashion plate of the 0/9th century
Fashionplate first appeared in the late18th century, and it was all the rage in Paris. During this period, HoraceVenet's "IncroyablesetMerveilleuses" and a series of watercolor fashion illustration carved by Georges-JacquesGatine during Napoleon I became famous.
France's status as a fashion arbiter ensures the continuous demand for fashion illustrations at home and abroad. This interest in fashion clothes and the increasingly extensive acquisition of fashion clothes led to the emergence of 150 kinds of fashion journals in the 9th century. These very detailed fashion illustrations capture the information of fashion trends and provide a general clothing guide.
It was also at this stage that high fashion appeared (at 1860). Fashion companies hire illustrators who will work directly with women's designers. When the designer hangs the cloth on the live model, the illustrator will sketch out the new design. They will also draw illustrations for each design in the completed series, and then they can send them to customers.
By the end of 19, manual color printing was replaced by full color printing. Fashion patterns began to use two figures, one of which can be seen from the back or side, so that clothes can be seen from more angles, thus making it easier to copy. /kloc-the focus of illustrators in the 0 th and 9 th centuries is accuracy and detail. They follow the convention of still images in order to provide comprehensive information and guidance for the audience.
Three. Fashion magazines and illustrations of the twentieth century
In the early decades of the twentieth century, fashion illustrations in the modern sense flourished for the first time. With the release of the latest fashion styles making more and more money, the work of fashion illustrator has become a profession. Fashion used to be an artist's work, but now it is becoming an industry, producing new goods in unprecedented quantities to fill the vacancy in department stores. These stores have created a new pastime-shopping culture.
The French luxury magazine Gazette was published from 19 12 to 1925, bringing together a group of young artists who have gained unprecedented freedom in interpreting fashion. Iribe is a leader among these fashion illustrators. He contributed to famous publications, including CharlesMartin, EduardoGarciaBenito, GeorgeBarbier, GeorgesLepape and UmbertoBrunelleschi. The printed version they produced for the Bulletin shows the influence of Japanese woodcut prints and the new changes in decorative art style.
In the United States, mass market fashion magazines Vogue and Harper'sBazaar cover social occasions and contemporary fashion trends. Harper 'sBazaar magazine signed an exclusive contract with Kurt from 19 15 to 1938, which is one of the longest contracts in the publishing history.
From 19 10 to the outbreak of World War II, the cover of Vogue magazine has always been illustrated. The early cover of Vogue shows the works of art created by American illustrators HelenDryden, GeorgeWolfPlank, GeorgesLepape and F.X.Leyendecker.
After World War I, European artists joined in, including EduardoBenito, CharlesMartin, PierreBrissaud and AndreMarty.
4. The Golden Age of fashion illustration
The period from1920s to191930s represents the "golden age" of fashion illustration. Every commercial artist is regarded as a fashion artist and a perfect draftsman. Many people can use authority and belief to represent the texture, luster and even weight of fabrics.
With the development of new photography and printing technology, photos are copied directly on the pages of magazines, which means that fashion patterns are no longer the representative of modern life. By the early 1930s,1930s, photos had become the first choice for magazines. Vogue magazine 1936 reported that the sales of photo covers were better, and illustrations began to be placed in the inner pages.
With the economic recession after the 1929 stock crash, the dependence of American fashion industry on Paris fashion has decreased. During the two world wars, the clothing manufacturing industry in the United States made great progress, improved mass production methods, and realized the standardization of sizes. Middle-class women can rely on skilled tailors to buy the latest fashion designs at affordable prices, while the patterns published by magazines such as Vogue and Women'sJournal are priceless to family tailors.
The main purpose of Vogue magazine is to show the readers fashion as much as possible. Photography liberates illustrators from the need for accurate records of clothes and tends to interpret fashion clothes. According to the magazine's publisher, "artists are mainly interested in getting interesting pictures and decorative effects." They are tired of faithfully reporting anything about the spirit of contemporary fashion, so they are bored. "
Dior's "NewLook" in the late1940s provided inspiration for the post-war fashion revival. In many ways, this is a retrogressive style, going back to the past instead of looking forward to the future, but it also symbolizes returning to a more cheerful and optimistic era.
Verb (abbreviation of verb) The Destruction and Revival of Fashion Illustration
In the 1950 s, fashion editors spent more budget on the editing and dissemination of photography. Later, fashion photographers were promoted to celebrities, which meant that illustrators must be satisfied with making a fuss about underwear and accessories or engaging in advertising activities.
In the 1960' s, the status of fashion illustration in magazine publishing industry has been disappearing, and this trend has been reflected in the new category of youth magazines. Many such magazines were published in the 1960' s, and all of them used illustrations as a cheap substitute for photography.
AntonioLopez was the only artist who regularly appeared in Vogue magazine during this period, and his career began in Women's Wear Daily.
In the second half of the 20th century, fashion illustration was difficult to survive, and it didn't start to revive until1980s. Published a new generation of artists in Lamoden Peinture (1982), Condenast's Vanity (1981), VisionAire (19 1) and other magazines. This revival is attributed to advertising activities, especially Barney's advertising activities in new york at 1993- 1996.
6. Today's fashion illustrations
Between fine arts and commercial arts, fashion illustration has recently been re-evaluated as an important genre. Because beauty and elegance are out of date in the fields of fashion and art, fashion illustration sometimes seems to go back to an earlier era.
Photography is very good at recording the details of clothing, so the illustrator's focus is no longer on the accurate presentation of clothing, but on explaining clothing and possible wearers. At the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 20th century, with the support of digital tools and social media platforms, it developed a series of unique artistic styles. From 65438 to 0990, pioneer illustrators such as Edtswaki, Graham Rounthwaite, Jasonbrooks and KristianRussell began to rise in the field of computer graphics.
This period witnessed the emergence of computer design programs AdobePhotoshop and Illustrator, and also witnessed the revival of traditional art-based fashion illustration forms. Parsons School of Design and FIT College in new york began to provide illustrations as a special element in their fashion courses. Hand-made "traditional" illustrations have been revived, and fashion illustrators often look back on past masters for style inspiration. Fashion illustrations based on classical methods have successfully supplemented those created by more modern methods.
Recently, through the cooperation between fashion designers and illustrators, illustrations have become popular. With the use of social media, fashion illustrators began to attract people's attention. Fashion illustrations are full of vibrant colors, intricate patterns and endless personalities, which leave a deep impression on people.

The "steampunk" aesthetics of the eleventh theme of steampunk illustrations mainly comes from the Victorian dress style in19th century and the steam-powered machinery developed during the industrial revolution, and is famous for its typical nostalgic costumes and accessories full of gears. However, the strength of the "steampunk" movement also comes from another aspect: the art of illustration.
Under the background of steampunk, artists created a lot of descriptions and produced different works.
These works can be divided into 1 1 themes.
The main charm of steampunk lies in the clothes, looks and manners of various unique characters.
Like the captain of a spaceship, a mercenary carrying a rocket bag, a flying pirate and so on, these roles are very common in steampunk.
