portfolio – editorial illustration for Threads

My first ever glossy magazine editorial illustration was in the July issue of Threads Magazine, a magazine I used and enjoyed even before I became a fashion student. Threads had also introduced me to some of my favourite 20th century designers, Fortuny and Charles Kleibacker. The brief was to illustrate a delighted seamstress showing off her magically perfect darts, I also included my own favourite vintage domestic machine, the Necchi, as a little tribute to my Nana who gave me the machine.

Thanks so much to the editors and staff at Threads for this opportunity – I consider it a milestone in my brief career.
