As I looked at a divesre range of fashion illustrators I looked at the Historic side of illustration. Bobby Hilson was the one that stood out to me the most she produced so many amazing pieces off art and every drawing she created has a story behind it.
Bobby Hillson worked as a fashion illustrator during the 1960′s and early 70′s during times before photographers where allowed into catwalk shows fashion it was the job of the illustrators to provide snapshots for press. Hillson was one of the illustrators working at the time and her illustrations where used widely by the fashion press including vogue.
