The aim of this brief is to incorporate fashion and illustration together to come up with a card design that brings together fantastic colours, beautiful drawing styles and fashion images.
It needs to be a suitable design for a Marks and Spencer customer in our everyday range of contemporary slim cards.
You should think about catwalk images, fluid lines of fabric and interesting patterns. Don't necessarily focus on the whole image, you might take a pair of shoes and focus solely on them, or cut the design from the waist of a model down. You might choose to consider the accessories alone rather than the model who wears them or alternatively it could be the fabulous packaging or bags that the outfits come in that you base the designs around.
Think about all kinds of media including watercolor, graphic images, collage, stitched fabrics, pencil sketches etc.
Deadline for the fashion Illustration Competition is Thursday 15th May 2008.
The format for entries must be 115mm x 230mm jpeg at 72 dpi in RGB either portrait or landscape. However please note you should create your original artwork at 300 dpi so that should it go in to production we have a high resolution version of it. Please email all entries in this format (max 5 per entrant) together with a brief description of your work and your username (nick name) to Vic at vlem2@hallmark-uk.com
We will endeavour to upload your designs within 24 hours.
