Illustration is one of today’s fastest growing creative disciplines. Its versatility has made it a key visual element in fashion, lifestyle, editorial design, and advertising. Illustrations depict and enrich content in magazines and other publications. They help advertisers to address target audiences more precisely. Illustration appears more and more frequently in fashion and packaging design, and the combination of illustration and photography has resulted in a new, more complex visual language. The Beautiful presents the work of today’s trendiest and most promising illustrators in the areas of fashion, lifestyle, editorial design, and commercial illustration.

The New Age of Feminine Drawing demonstrates clearly how and why illustration in fashion has made an amazing comeback. Having virtually reached saturation point, photography is no longer the all-powerful medium of creativity, and has once again given way to the age old art of drawing.
The drawings featured in this exciting new title represent many different styles and a broad cross section of artists. All works featured have one thing in common: they possess a uniquely feminine power of seduction.
Categories covered include magazine covers, posters, cosmetic advertisements, lifestyle advertisements and entertainment products.
Artists featured include Akari Inogouchi, Annika Wester, Carine Brancowitz, Cecilia Carlstedt, Cedric Rivrain, Christina K. Coco, Elisa Johns, Laura Laine, Lotie, Maren Esdar, Jarno Kettunen and more.

“Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.”- Coco Chanel
Artistic representation of fashion has existed since the dawn of civilization. From the statues of Mesopotamia, the walls of Egyptian pyramids, the master paintings of the Renaissance, the cover of Vogue’s first issue in 1892, and through today, artists have continued to carefully document fashion of the period. Gallery Nucleus is therefore proud to present our first fashion illustration exhibition.
We are privileged to have an international roster featuring established as well as emerging contemporary fashion illustrators. Exhibiting artists working in a variety of mediums from paint, watercolor, ink, textiles and digital media. These artists have worked with designers such as Dior, Jean-Paul Gualtier, and Marc Jacobs just to name a few. They have graced the pages of publications including, Vogue, Cosmopolitan, Elle, Nylon and many more.

The new SS2011 accessories collection from Forget-Me-Not is inspired by Mythology. Designer Coco’s 100% silk scarves – which are are digitally printed in Como, Italy – depict scenes featuring characters whose tales of heroism, romance and mystery have captured mankind’s imagination across the centuries.
As always, the Forget–Me-Not muses appear in the form of delicate female characters depicted in dreamlike scenarios. Fine featured and full of mischief, these sylphs are surrounded by winged creatures and fantastical beings including butterfly, ornate shells and tropical birds. Twisted ropes of pearls snake through elegant tuniques whilst Coco’s unique geometrical abstractions add a graphic quality that compliments the whimsical nature of her illustrations.
In a palette of ocean blues, rich purple and midnight black, on which brighter hues are set off against a backdrop of neutral tones to give each composition a beguiling sense of depth. Moreover, with every design meticulously rendered by hand, this latest collection in the highly successful Forget-Me-Not series is a covetable extension of Coco’s work as a sought after fashion illustrator.

“Forget me not” is a series of Art mode digital prints on scarves and turban, all 100% silk. As an extension of the coco’s work as an illustrator, all designs are based exclusively on personal compositions and all elements have been hand-drawn by her. Coco was commissionned for magazines such as Vogue, Nylon, ELLE, and Muse as well as a number of corporate clients: K Karl Lagerfeld, Evian Cosmetics and Addition Adelaide in Japan. It was this rapid success that convinced Coco to set up Forget Me Not, a line of exquisitely hand-rendered, digitally printed scarves. It is a small collection, always of three original design themes in two separate colour waves, which encapsulates the essence of feminine beauty, balancing ethereal imaginary worlds and delicate penmanship against strong geographic patterns and a rich palate of colours.
The collection is available in a selection of Luxury Stores around the world : Barneys (USA), Boon the shop (Korea), Cochinechine (London) Colette (Paris), Club designer (Taiwan), Fenwick ( London ), Jean Brown ( Australia ), Lane Crawford ( Hong kong ) Storm (Copenhagen), Tea Rose ( Italy ) and More
