No drawing today (or yesterday for that matter) but I have a good excuse; I was researching Savile Row tailoring schools and apprenticeships. I feel like I need to be somewhere that the art of clothesmaking is actually appreciated. In New York its all about "design". Anyone can design or call themselves a designer in my opinion. What? You can draw pretty pictures? Maybe you follow trends? Schmooze at parties? Can you fucking turn a flat piece of fabric into an evening gown? Spend 40 hours making a bespoke suit? I can. Well. Thats the path I'm taking at least. But no one here seems to appreciate it. I may just have to move to Europe. In lieu of a drawing....I made this origami dress....so there.
