Mai Afafo Inspire

Hi,
scrolling down Just a SKETCH, you would notice that in months, my illustrations have had some changes, you would also notice that the ladies have had it since the birth of Just a SKETCH. With those observations, I decided to do something totally different from an exceptional designer. Mai Atafo showcased a collection for both the ladies and gents on the platform of GTB LFDW 2013. I decided to illustrate only the gents.
I have always liked shade of colours for men but he proved me wrong and showed me that tints of colours still work with his perfect cut ( I hope I didn't spoil the cut). This pieces brings the ''gentle in a man'' Just like the ladies would love it. And for the ladies I suggest you get one or ALL for your man this season, he would love it xoxo.

Bridget Awosika

Hi, these set of illustrations marks a stage of evolution in the way I present my sketches, with the advise from  an experienced illustrator, she told me that I should give my sketches identities, she said I should give my sketches faces in order to define who they really are and here is Bridget Awosika GTB lagos fashion and design week,(LFDW) 2013 collection, what makes me attracted to her collection is the perfect cut given to the sheer materials, gives a woman that comfortable feeling and look at the same time makes her transparent like you could see through  her but at the same time covered, just love the combinations, hope you love them too xoxo

Trish O Couture

Hi,
Today I would be posting designs from Just one designer i.e Patricia Onumonu of Trish O Couture. This is because she was able  to capture my heart through the use of  African fabrics and foreign ones alike, some have rough edges like the last one. She shows you that any woman can become a chic all you have to do is "slip into one of the piece and whola! you are one" Just like that. Been a former model she sure knows what she has to do to make every woman look elegant. ENJOY!!!!

ROUGH EDGES

Hi, been quite a time, but I'm back now. You know during the whole fashion showcase from New York to London, Paris to Milan, I just couldn't get my eyes off the designs by Calvin Klein, it was just sweet, that's  if I could eat them, but seriously the cut are as nice as they could be. The very thing that took my attention was the rough edges. Those (rough edges) made it as unique as it was, meaning only special ladies could wear them. I picked some of them and told myself that I would have to sketch them, and I did, just hope you love them

CALVIN KLEIN

 

 After that, I thought I had seen a girl so beautiful that I had to stop what I was doing and stare for a while but later found out that they were wearing designs by Burberry, then I knew I didn't make a mistake to say that the girls are BEAUTIFUL. Burberry did a wonderful job bring these lace to something I would love on a outgoing woman. Just love it...

Designs by Mai Atafo and Amarelis

Couldn't be more happy to be posting this. have been kind off too busy helping my day in his store and sketching the designs but loved the adventure of doing both of them the same time. Used less of water colour this time and more of marker and a pen

                     MAI ATAFO

One of Nigeria's best women love his style when it comes to bridal wears, and the surprising thing about his bridal collecting they are almost as cheap as normal clothes, he uses more of celebrities as his models when showcasing his designs than just models

    AMARELIS

The Nigerian design label Amarelis is a lifestyle brand that is defined by charm, contemporary designs, elastic sensibility and femininity.Bella Naija

MY OFFICIAL DEBUT

Hi, just a SKETCH has passed through some changes and I hope the changes are for the better. Been in school (studying MATHEMATICS) kind of different from the content of the blog ? yeah, but here is how is going to go down though. I would be posting designs of fashion designers and the first would be from Nike Akinola and Folake Cooker (Tiffany Amber) just hope you love them 

NIKE AKINOLA

                     Nike did something that I love so much and that is the fuse she made with the Ankara and other variety of material like the check material from the last piece it was fun mixing colours

TIFFANY AMBER

One of Nigeria's best , gave me some difficulty in illustrating the materials themselves cause that's exactly where the main challenge  comes from 

do drop with your comment that should be enough fuel for me to go on. 

the pictures are from Bella Naija (Tiffany Amber) and Narialand (Nike Akinola)
