I’m illustrated

Danielle from Final Fashion is a fashion illustrator.. She started an illustration project for anyone who wished for an original image that would be placed on Moo cards. After seeing the results of Lady Kit Kat, Carolyn and the grumpy owl, I decided to commission my own.

The inspiration:
I wanted my photo to convey some sort of graceful movement instead of the typical jaunty pose. I told Danielle to do what she felt was best, but I wanted movement. I also wanted to be wearing this outfit from my dream collection, Balenciaga Spring 2007.

The reveal after the jump

I’m illustrated by Danielle Meder
Pretty damn good huh. Danielle originally had a badminton racquet in my hand. I really liked the concept but I play squash so the racquet needed changing. I send her a picture of my racquet for reference and asked for a ball.

For those of you that don’t know what I look like, here is a pic

If you would like to commission your own illustration and moo cards, please contact Danielle.
