Fruits



Here are two sketches
based on fashions from
the books Fruits and
Fresh Fruits.





The books are collections
of images from the Japanese
magazine, Fruits, a
magazine dedicated to
Japanese street fashion.

They are a great source
of ideas for Illustrators.


Clothes/hair: Fresh Fruits
Models: My imagination

    Heh. Your illustrations make those insane FRUITS outfits look almost wearable by normal people :D!

    I really like the drawing/pose on the top one. Very nice figures.

    Thanks, Amy. :)

    Thanks, Jack. It's tough coming up with poses that are unique to each other, yet still look natural and casual.

    Thanks, xenos.
    The books are good. Phaidon just released a new one that focuses on Gothic and Lolita fashions. I haven't had a chance to pick that one up yet, though.
