Fashion Illustration Gallery Walls
I’ve been working on a couple of rooms designed with a young lady in mind. One of my favorite things to recommend for these rooms are fashion illustrations. Fashion illustrations are a bit girly, but they are also chic and grown up at the same time.

Here are some of my favorite go-to fashion illustrators:
1. Jessica Durrant creates beautiful watercolor illustrations. Prints can be picked up for $25.
2.Kathryn Elyse works in watercolor, ink, and pencil. Prints can be picked up for $20.
3.Esther Bayer creates original drawings based on vintage Vogue magazine covers. Prints can be picked up for $30.
4. Vanessa Datorre creates fashion illustrations in colorful settings. Posters can be picked up starting at $18.
5 .Lisa from Sketch & Pixel works in watercolor and pencil and recreates scenes from Gossip Girl. Prints available for $25.
6. Inslee has been a long time favorite of mine. Not only does she have a variety of fashion illustration prints available for purchase ($20 a print), but she also does custom illustrations.
You can either use prints from the same illustrator for a uniformed look or mix up the illustrations and add additional art pieces for a more eclectic look. It’s up to you.
Any fashion illustrators on your radar that I should know about?

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
I love those fashion Illustrations! I’ve drawn and painted a few vintage illustrations for my own living room and love how they look! Very Chic idea for little girls and big girls alike!
So cool. I also love the chairs flanking the front of the wall. So pretty!
LOVE fashion illustrations as art in the home. I have some original watercolors in my guest room and picekd up some Vogue covers in Paris when I was 15.
Been reading for a while. I’m your newest follower!

I’m a huge fan of this idea. I’ve done it in my daugther’s room with images from costume designers….we have two originals! I love how they work for gals of all ages. The ones in my daugther’s room will grow with her…love that! Can’t wait to see your final project.
I also used fashion illustrations in my daughters room. we purchased the 2010 barbie calendar and picked out our 10 favorites to hang above her bed. Probably a cheaper option than you are showing but still creates the same elegant look.
i cant wait to see how this room turns out!!
A kind of funky alternative to the illustrations could be framed vintage pattern envelopes.
I found a few the other day from the fifties that I’m considering framing for my dressing area, next to my closet door. They make me smile. Wish I had that waist!
What kind of message does that send our daughters though when the pictures are very, very thin women striking a pose. As a former model way way back in the 70s — I would say mix it up with athletes (they are so beautiful now) and a hero(ine) of your own — or two! I raised my own beautiful daughter who is now an attorney.
YES!! As a drawer myself, I have been debating on doing my own. Back in high school everyone knew I could draw and would always draw ladies in fly clothes. I love the idea for a dressing room personally.
Oww wooww thanks for sharing my work :o)
Thanks for the shout out! I have watercolor illustrations too 🙂
