Overview

Versace's chief illustrator teaches us how to draw, halfway between fashion sketch and illustration, in a non-classical and non-stereotypical way. A design tutorial by Daniela Bambatti, Versace's chief (design) illustrator, the book is an idea of couturier Favio Marconi who, impressed by her drawing style and the precision with which she captures the flow of fabric over the body, convinced her to put it into print. Here Bambrilla reveals her fresh and innovative style, halfway between fashion sketching and illustration. AUTHORS: Manuela Brambatti began her career in the fashion world in the late seventies through working for Style and other fashion magazines. She has collaborated with Giorgio Correggiari, Krizia and Gian Marco Venturi, but her most important and far-reaching experience is her work with Gianni Versace.

Currently a freelancer, she works with various young contemporary designers and jewellery houses and produces illustrations for firms in the fashion and design industries.
