Amelia’s Compendium of Fashion Illustration launch party photos: meet Liz Johnson-Artur

6 Day Riot's Tamara Schlesinger by Natsuki Otani.

There were so many amazing guests at my ACOFI launch who didn't come down to the afternoon tea party that it seemed only natural to ask some of my ACOFI illustrators who were also not present during the daytime to illustrate a few of them. Which is how I wound up with this merry bunch of pictures.

A couple were unsurprisingly enamoured of 6 Day Riot: Erica Sharp and Natsuki Otani (above) show just how differently illustrators can see things.
