Onozawa Yutaka - - Fashion Illustrator

simple, whimsical designs. Onozawa Yutaka's art should be categorized under fashion artists such as Stina or Marguerite.

Steampunk Magazine

"SteamPunk Magazine is a publication that is dedicated to promoting steampunk as a culture, as more than a sub-category of fiction. It is a journal of fashion, music, misapplied technology and chaos. And fiction.
It just may be the most spectacular magazine to ever fight against the spectacle, and it is free. Or as cheap as we can possibly get it to you. Using the latest in Creative Commons technology, we undermine the fascism of copyright while protecting ourselves from direct co-option." SteamPunk Magazine

You can view the magazine online, in PDF formats. I like the simple illustration and the nice, simple fonts ♥

Fashion Week 19

Katy Rodriguez's collection was potential, melodious, and pleasing. I agree with this remark by Laird Borrelli-Persson: "Swingy, coquettish dresses with cheery polka dots hit her target of 'fun, festive, and bright.' Rodriguez could have spread her wings a little farther, though."


Roccobarocco reminsd me so much of Roberto Cavalli, with classy and posh feeling throw in it. I am never fond of animal prints (those are only for bedspread or pillows) and the floral prints are decent.


The Seduzioni Diamonds collection was sleazy and bit too revealing without being classy. Flocks were pretty, though.




I don't like sequins! Ben de Lisi has that and i chalked down points for it. But the rest, there lies a handsome, well-formed line.


The Elena Miro plus-size collection impressed me. It was refreshing and interesting how the models displayed the outfits. Definitely am blown away with the presentation and it does look superb.


Mixed of 20s and 80s era, wild patterns, and charisma : you got the Eley Kishimoto collection. The heels are so cute!




Alessandro De Benedetti definitely has a color signature: grey colours. Amazing.

Fashion Week 18

Strong in sheer, neutral transparent outfits, Richard Nicoll creates a soft, ghostlike movement in the line. This is refreshing to see different kind of fabric.


Erdem attempted striking patterns and zigzag style (which seems to be the trend of the Spring line) in the line. The thunder lies in the dresses.


Sinha-Stanic has intriguing designs but the folds are enough to make me dislike the line. It seems to fold in an unattractive way... The squared-feathers pattern are alright, and the shoes aren't that amazing.


Playtime! Duro Olowu lightens up with cute patterns and safe design.


Comfortable, alluring, and of Greek style but in modern theme is what I see in the Allegra Hicks collection.


See by Chloé = meh.


Vivienne Tam has amazing, peacock-like colors; some too much but I like this:

I like the detail of wrapping the fabric, that bump effect from tightness.



Roksanda Ilincic is confusing, but I'll try to overlook the bad tailoring and outward shapes; there are few decent outfits. But the biggest distraction of all is the football shoulders.

Oh dear, who would wear this, I'm not sure.. at least, drinks can be placed on it if there's not a place to put it down.


Or for birds to rest on....

tee-you qu-ick (Tiiu Kuik)

Tiiu Kuik (tee-you qu-ick) (born March 16, 1987) is an Estonian supermodel.

Born in Tallinn, Kuik has walked the runways for more than 40 designers, including Gucci (Where in she opened the fall 2003 and spring 2004 show), Chanel, and Louis Vuitton, among others. She is now representing CoverGirl cosmetics. At the age of 13, she was at a local food fair in Estonia when the owner of the "TopModel" agency discovered her. She was then sent to Japan for modeling work, and after that, to Italy. Her modeling career has skyrocketed since. Kuik's face has graced the covers of several high profile fashion magazines, including multiple Vogue covers. (Wikipedia)


The first time I noticed her was on that Surface magazine. Since then, I thought she looked familiar, and I can't quite place her and finally I recognized her. I don't know much about her; however, I like some of her works. Although, I think her spotlight's getting dim...?
