? Peep-toe shoes illustration for sunny days

Posted on 27/05/2013 by Marta Madaiva

It is not pink like the one in the Louis Vuitton pumps illustration, but the leather brownish colour of the peep-toe shoes illustration below is always an attraction for me, especially when sun shines.

Yes, sun is shining in London – :-O – and what a better occasion – this is the case – for wearing peep-toe shoes for a stroll in the park?

Unfortunately, I cannot remember the designer of the leather open toe pumps. I recall the brand is Italian, but I forgot the name! This is why the question mark in the peep-toe shoes illustration title!

A sparkling wedding: Jenny Packham wedding dress illustration

Posted on 13/04/2013 by Marta Madaiva

Jenny Packham, the most successful British designer, is second to none in the wedding industry and at red carpet events with an A-list of celebrities and iconic women such as the Duchess of Cambridge. Since the launching of the company in 1988, her bridal gowns have appeared on national and international bridal magazines with collections sold at the most prestigious department stores such as Harrods and Neiman Marcus.

When I heard from @Bridesmagazine that Jenny Packham was having an end of line bridal sale in London I couldn’t help but sneaking a peak again at the 2013 bridal collection. At last I felt that inspiration that an artist needs to finish an artwork. The Astrantia wedding dress illustration I started when I first saw it was quickly completed. How not falling in love with a crystal embroidery that makes you sparkle on your day?!

Soon the sale will touch base in Manchester on 18th April. It’s interested to hear from the London brides who attended the sale event in Conduit Street. Did you find your one of a kind wedding dress?

Will Jenny Packham celebrate her 25^thanniversary this year designing Adele’s wedding dress?

Happy 2013 with macarons illustration!

Posted on 30/12/2012 by Marta Madaiva

Inspiration for this macarons illustration has come from a gift delivered to my sister’s for Christmas. A lovely pastel Ladurée box from Paris!

Ladurée macarons do not need any introduction as they are the most popular biscuits and the favourite sweet treats of children. What people might not know is their origins, which are not French, but surprisingly, Italian!

Wishing a 2013 full of sweet things!

Beyoncé and baby Blue Ivy illustration

Posted on 13/10/2012 by Marta Madaiva

As holiday approached the Beyoncé and baby Blue Ivy illustration, which goes back to July, went to the drawer!

The pop singer Beyoncé with her daughter Blue Ivy on her hip were caught by paparazzi during their shopping trip to New York City in July. She showed off not only her little girl, but also her newly braided hair tied up in a bun!

The Beyonce and baby Blue Ivy sketch is still unfinished!

Rupert Sanderson sandals for the London 2012 Olympics

Posted on 28/07/2012 by Marta Madaiva

As a matter of fact I truly love shoes. So illustrating the Rupert Sanderson sandals has been an enjoyable time. The inspiration came after a shopping tour with my special friend at Selfridges on a Saturday afternoon – not really the right time to go shopping as it was very crowded!!!

The Italian-made Rupert Sanderson sandals are drawn from the colours of the Union Jack and have been designed for the Queen’s Jubilee and the London 2012 Olympics.

The Marquita sandals, made of patent leather, are the best choice for a summer and Olympic night out!

Chanel sunglasses illustration to call back good weather

Posted on 06/06/2012 by Marta Madaiva

Where has the good weather gone?! In London the weather remains unpredictable: showers, sun and wind on the same day. Typically British. Only a week ago we were under the illusion that sun lotions, skimpy dresses with designer sunglasses (=occhiali da sole) would remain with us for the following months.

So Chanel sunglasses illustration, on a classic aviator style, is a hope for a better weather soon, which means loads of smiles on people’s face through the city streets.

Chanel sunglasses for a hope that chance of rain and low temperatures will remain just a vague memory!

Giuseppe Zanotti Design pastel blue suede wedges

Posted on 20/04/2012 by Marta Madaiva

It’s 2012, but Giuseppe Zanotti Design pastel blue suede wedges (= scarpe con la zeppa blu pastello) from the spring/summer 2011 collection are still one of my favourites.

Much loved by celebrities and the international jet-set, the Italian shoe designer was influenced by his tailor mum, but surprinsingly he started his career as a DJ playing music for seven-eight years! Luckly Giuseppe Zanotti decided to freelance sketching shoes giving us the most fashionable shoes in the world!

Below is a fashion illustration I made for a family’s friend, who went to a dinner party. She asked me to design a sheath dress (= tubino) incorporating a bow.

She looked gorgeous!!!

Happy sparkling weekend!
