During my brief tenure at FIT I always kicked myself that I went into Illustration, which as far as I could tell was clavicle rendering 101, and not Fashion Illustration, which at the very least seemed like more fun.

Beautiful Fashion Illustrations

Many are. Many, including the one at the top of that page and the ones immediately below where it is repeated, are not. (For values of beautiful that are consistent with my personal tastes, of course.) Sorry, Mr. Roberts.

I came across Laura Laine on Tumblr recently, and I don't think the pics they chose for her, do her work justice. (For what it's worth, I'm more interested in the art of these than the fashion)

Hoo boy, I hope those aren't ordered according to someone's taste...
