Inspiring Fashion Artworks by Amylee

GisMullr — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 04:46:19 +0000

I really like fashion artworks, and a good fashion artwork, in my humble opinion, is that one that makes you wonder about the scene, model, details, colors and everything in it. A good fashion art is the one that gets your attention by its style, by its vibe. And this is exactly what Amylee does with her pieces, she gets our attention and takes us to a parallel fashion universe.

Amylee's style and color schemes are pretty awesome. She has a delicate line that combined with stylish outlines, vibrant colors and beautiful textures delivers a strong and expressive outcome. Really inspiring! Make sure to check out more about her throughout the article. Enjoy!

Born in the Midi, South of France, and now working in Paris for several years, Amylee is a 100% accomplished painter. Curious about everything, her resume has grown throughout her activities and encounters.

From Design to Fashion, from Fashion to Decoration, and from Decoration to Art, she came through all of this with the same acute view; a unique perception that she likes using in her paintings. She loves telling stories about Woman, composes with different patterns, and inspires herself with Haute Couture and the 70s.

Amylee’s paintings are charged up with a positive energy associated with a touch of an elegant “glamorous-Pop”, so characteristic of her creations. In her collections, she made simplicity and exuberance, Plastic Arts and Fashion, Painting and Collage.

Different worlds are facing each other and that would have seduced Warhol himself for sure! Pop Culture/Baroque, Haute Couture/Comics, Street Art/Decorative Arts : a happy and artistic cocktail where the paint slaps onto the canvas and become an anti-depression remedy.

Amazing Fashion Watercolor Illustrations by Kareem Iliya

PauloGabriel — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 07:52:30 +0000

Hip Fashion Photography by Basilio Silva

amanda — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 12:54:43 +0000

I came across Basilio Silva's portfolio the other day and was instantly drawn to his super edgy style. His fashion work is a sublime mixture of bright colors and sharp angles that really leaves me wanting more. I found virtually no information about him except that he's based in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Sometimes I wonder if artists remain elusive on purpose just to create this mystery about them and their work. Perhaps elusive isn't the best word...anonymous maybe? I think I really like not knowing anything about him and leaving the rest up to my imagination. Maybe it's best to just let the work do the talking. I think that's the true essence of being an artist--communicating and showing yourself through your work without this obscure necessity of words that we hold so much value on. Visual rather than verbal communication is what it's all about.

Anyway, I'm being hypocritical right now by rambling on about this so I'm just gonna leave you with this collection of Basilio's work instead. Check out the rest here and, actually, I'd really like to hear your opinion on this whole elusive-artist thing (for lack of better word). Consider the topic officially open for debate. Tweet your take on it to me - @amlight.

Beautiful Photography by Leonard Gren

amanda — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 12:25:08 +0000

Last week we received a suggestion from one of our readers about Leonard Gren's beautiful fashion photography. And beautiful it is! I was going through his site last night and found other great non-fashion related photos that definitely deserved a mention as well!

I think what I love the most about Leonard's work is that it's so clean, as in, not overally processed with textures and what have you. All I've been seeing lately is incredibly overdone photos so this is a nice break from all of that. Anyway, don't forget to check out his portfolio and let me know what you think via twitter or facebook!

Stunning Underwater Fashion Photography

GisMullr — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 11:36:49 +0000

Continuing my research about photography and its different formats I found some pretty nice underwater fashion photos that I would like to share here. I really like this technique because it shows the photographers talent and also the model capacity of standing still to provide the best close to the image. My modeling experience is nonexistent, but I believe that taking a photo underwater must be a hard task. :)

Please check out further images, making of videos and techniques details at Mick Gleissner website (http://www.mgleiss.com). You can also find several other photos, information and curiosity about this way of photographing at the following websites I've used to find some of these great work. So, check them out:

As Mick Gleissner mention at his website: " Combine one man's passion for diving and photography with his fascination for fashion and beautiful women..." and you will have great underwater fashion photography.
