Fashion Illustration

Then we chose a main idea from the mind map to create the retro wallpaper. So we chose to use a fashion illustration design with other background and objects that describes retro.
So we did more research on fashion illustration on the 60's to the 80's.

Fashion Illustration is the communication of fashion designs through drawing. The main focus is the fashion figure or croquis used for draping the clothing onto.

Retro is a term used to describe, denote or classify culturally outdated or aged trends, modes, or fashions, from the overall postmodern past, but have since that time become functionally or superficially the norm once again. The use of "retro" style iconography and imagery interjected into American postmodern art, advertising, mass media, etc. has occurred from around the time of the U.S. industrial revolution to present day.
So we were ask to create a retro wallpaper. So the first thing we did is the mind map.
