Amelia's Compendium of Fashion Illustration Book Launch

So on Friday I was lucky enough to go to Amelia's Launch Party for the book at 123 Bethnal Green. Here is me with my plus one for the night, my lovely boyfriend James.

The venue was tucked behind a vintage shop, and the party was held on several floors, with the band 6 Day Riot playing on the upper floor, and a DJ set from the Pipettes, and later on Will from the Mystery Jets.

The bottom floor was where I got this gorgeous goody bag, with customised moleskine and tatty devine necklace with the amelia logo... absolutely love the tote too!

And Here's the cake by Lily Vanilli.. it tasted and looked amazing, with the most delicious icing ever..

I had a great time meeting the designers and other illustrators who have also been published in the book, and who I also follow on Twitter. It was so great to finally meet them in person!

My pages in Amelia's Compendium of Fashion Illustration

If you read my earlier blog posts you will know that I won Amelia's Magazine's Open Brief Competition as one of the Illustrators to design a fashion collection and be featured in her latest book.

I finally got my copy of it over Christmas, a couple of days before in fact, and what a great present!

It was the same time last year that I was opening my Amelia's Anthology of Illustration, so to be actually in this installment is a little surreal!

I'm very happy with my pages, I think they turned out really well, all the pages are jam-packed full of colour and pattern. Especially loving the layouts Amelia has created, she's done such a great job!
