The team at Copic was open to anything I'd like to do as it relates to fashion illustration, my area of expertise. They provided me with a list of prompts I could use as inspiration and I chose "roses" for the first and "airy" for the second. I chose roses because there was a dress by Sachin and Babi worn by influencer Racheal Martino that I loved and had been wanted to sketch which was covered in different shades of blue roses! And this was the perfect project to sketch that look (shown below.)
For the airy illustration I was inspired to create a flowing white dress with flounces that rippled in the wind as figure walked. (See top image) I love drawing walking poses and having the figure walk would add airy movement to both the dress and hair. I made her skin tone a dark shade of black to contrast nicely with the white/gray dress and I love how it came out! I hope you enjoyed this little behind the scene insider info into what went into making these sketches for Copic!
