Haute Couture Wedding Dress Illustrations Gallery

The popularity and tradition of haute couture fashion illustrations date back to the mid 1900’s. Similar to how an artists first sketch before they begin painting on canvas, a fashion illustration marks the beginning and acts as a foundation for a garment’s creation. The fashion illustrations show the structural detail that goes into each bridal gown, and also reflects the high fashion elements and influences of the dress’ design.

The illustrations help give an impression of the texture of the dress, embellishment with beading or jewels, the added body and shape from the layers and folds within the skirt, to the smooth sheen of the silk fabric. The wedding dress illustrations demonstrate Matlo’s talents as a designer, and are also beautiful keepsakes which are available for purchase once your dress has been made.
