Traits Très Mode : French Fashion Illustration NowAlliance Française de Manille proudly announces its forthcoming cutting-edge fashion event "Traits très mode - French fashion illustration now" set on August 23, 2005, 8 p.m. at the Rockwell Tent.
"Traits très mode - French fashion illustration now" is a traveling exhibit making its way to Manila via the Association Française d'Action Artistique (AFAA) and showcases a diverse group of works from 15 internationally renowned fashion illustrators, graphic designers, and animators.
There will be a total of 60 illustrations/pane ls mounted in plexiglass for the exhibit.
According to Cédric Morisset and Hélène Convert, the curators of this show, the new style of illustration is no longer a mere visual representation of fashion objects.
Rather, it transforms the mental worlds and fantasies embodied by those objects into images, while in turn, each new image nourishes the next of fashion's ephemeral cycles.
As illustrators have become ever more closely bound up with the dictates of fashion's time cycles, their creativeness and diversity has never been so rich.
This show has already received acclaim in various venues across Europe, proving that art and fashion have successfully converged to develop a high form of image art, and new grounds for modern clothes designers and visual artists.
