Drawing on Style: Original Fashion Illustration

Drawing on Style presents original fashion illustratons from the 1960s and 1970s to complement the new Biba Story exhibition.  

This exciting display is free to visit and features work by artists Antonio Lopez, Kenneth Paul Block, Tod Draz, René Gruau, Gladys Perint Palmer, Caroline Smith and Steven Stipelman. It presents fashion illustration as both an important art form, and an enduring testament to creativity and style. The 1960s and 1970s marked a defining era for fashion illustration, a period when line, colour and gesture captured not only the silhouette of style but the spirit of cultural change.

Presented in collaboration with Gray M.C.A, the world’s leading specialists in original fashion illustration, Drawing on Style is a rare opportunity to acquire work by the 20th century masters of the medium.
