I'm always on the lookout for fashions that I might be able to make at home and/or recreate at a lower price. Here's an easy idea.

For Something different, try Indian fashion

One reason I like International fashion magazines and websites is because sometimes I can get some new, original ideas for fashion designs that I might make or try to imitate.

Fashion Illustration in the News

Right now, Style.com has a section called the "Fall 2008 Fashion Week Preview" and several great fashion illustrations are featured. First of all, the will be a party to celebrate the publication of "Drawing Fashion: The Art of Kenneth Paul Block."

There are also several other fashion illustrations shown in the Fall preview, including one by Bill Blass. I hope this is an indication that fashion illustration is becoming a more popular art form.
