 Not just another drawing book! March 28, 2008
When I bought this I was worried that I would be stuck with another "how-to" manual for fashion illustration. I just received my copy and wow! I'm so pleased with the quality of the illustrations and the variety of styles presented within- I can't wait to get drawing!
This was exactly what I was looking for, a source for stylistic inspiration to bring into my own drawing skills.

This was a really useful source book of current fashion illustrators. Both the layout and quality were very good.
good book on contemporary illustration February 18, 2008

This book consists of fashion illustrations of many contemporary artists. There are no tutorials in the book but finished drawings. They are prepared in many different mediums and with use of computer programs as well. For me they are great source of inspiration. I recommend the book.
 Horrible! January 22, 2008

We hoped for a quality fashion tutorial type of book but this is nothing but page after page of immature (kindergarten style) cartoonish 'artwork' with name credits only. There is no text, no instruction, no worthwhile notations. We looked forward to the importing of art into Adobe for finish work, a before and after, but found none. The Glamour section began with poorly cartooned men and women naked in showers. Perhaps they were wearing the finest of the Emperor's new clothes? We were so disappointed we returned the book immmediately.
