Might need to try that one. And I agree that your illustrations could/should be made into proper garments--you're DESIGNING, which is half the battle. I am really loving the idea of a zipper-bow.

Most designers don't even have a vision of what the texture or material is going to be until they come across something. you have a great sense of material and you could definitely make the clothes in your illustrations tangible (with the right production team of course) do you realize that your not just creating a fantasy world though your illustrations. your actually designing. illustration is a means of communication to a production team.

Wish I could find a similarly squared-off headband for myself but I suppose I'll have to DIY it. bee+clover: The jacket might be physically impossible--at least floating above her shoulders the way it is. The problem with coming up with these clothes as an illustrator is that I have a very limited understanding of how fabric drapes and flows, or the subtly different and fascinating shapes that arise from that knowledge. :) But perhaps in the future! melina bee: Oh, thanks for reminding me–I forgot to note that the headband is based on square rings.

I love how her headpiece looks like a giant ring (fyi that is the basic silhouette of my parents' wedding rings). Also at first glance her body is appears... morphed or somehow anatomically distorted/combined with another creature, but after focusing past the sheer fabric, her body appears totally human after all. I guess that is what happens when you wear an exoskeleton? also agree that you should at least collaborate with a designer who knows tailoring. wow, incredible!
