100 Years of Fashion Illustration by Cally Blackman

A visual feast of 400 dazzling images, this is a comprehensive survey of the genre over the last century. The book also offers an overview of the development of fashion, as seen through the eyes of the greatest illustrators of the day.

Early in the century, fashion illustration reflected new, liberating currents in art and culture, such as the exoticism of the Ballets Russes, while the postwar period saw inspiration from the great Parisian couturiers. After the dominance of the celebrity fashion photographer in the 60s, a new generation of illustrators emerged, embracing the medium of the computer, while many returned to more traditional techniques.

Cally Blackman is the author of 100 Years of Fashion, 100 Years of Fashion Illustration, and 100 Years of Menswear, and now teaches a fashion history and theory course at Central Saint Martins.
