The Design Museum just announced its schedule of exhibitions for 2010 and will present ‘Illustrated Fashion’ from 23 June – 31 October 2010, a collection of recognisable fashion drawings from the 20th and 21st Century. These original drawings define the fine art of illustrating fashion and will sit alongside key garments from couture houses that defined the different directions and avant-garde designs including Poiret, Chanel, Dior, but also Yamamoto, Comme des Garçons and Viktor & Rolf.
The artists who produced these illustrations give each collection or look an emotive and stylistic sense of direction that at times even photography cannot emulate. The drawings reflect the spirit of the time and some have become graphic icons in their own right. This exhibition stresses the representation of key artists in their best period: Lepape at the beginning of the century, Gruauin the 40‘s and 50‘s, Antonio for the next decades, Mats Gustafson and Francois Berthoud sharing the front stage today
The collection of drawings to be displayed is by Joëlle Chariau, owner of Galerie Bartsch & Chariau based in Munich, Germany.
