From a young age, a freelance illustrator named Kerri Brown was always surrounded by art: she was training as a classical ballerina. But years later, she discovered that she likes illustration even more.

While visiting Bali, Brown found herself inspired by the local tattoo artists and illustrators. They were all working digitally, which turned out to be the triggering point for her to become a digital artist.

“I never thought I was that patient when it came to creating art, so I loved any medium that allowed me to bring my vision to life quickly. This is why digital art has changed my life! I love using the Procreate App. It has really allowed me to experiment and bring my ideas to life without wasting any medium,” she said in an interview for Ballpit. She also added that before discovering the digital world, she would work with watercolors and posca pens.

Although she is still working on her color palettes, one thing is for sure: fashion illustration will always be her number one influence.

“I love drawing people and characters that represent a certain mood that is usually bold and sassy. I would say my alter ego shines through most of the characters I draw,” she explained. “My overall style consists of a quirky concoction of current trends mixed with playful color palettes resulting in bold stylized characters.”

Hello Kitty, arguably the world’s most famous fictional cat, is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2024. As part of the celebration, Hello Kitty brand teamed up with footwear maker Crocs to create a cool pair of clogs.

Hello Kitty x Crocs clogs are predominantly white and come adorned with a glossy red heel strap and a blue stripe along the midsole. Hello Kitty’s signature red bow is also included, as well as the character’s logo on the insole and on the heel strap. The Crocs logo is placed on the back of the heel strap.

Hello Kitty x Crocs clogs will become available for purchase on January 17 on Crocs’ online shop and selected locations. The adult sizes will be priced at $70, while the kid and infant sizes will cost $55 and $50, respectively.

The character of Hello Kitty was first created in 1974 by Japanese designer Yuko Shimizu. It was first used on vinyl coin purses produced by the company Sanrio and later adorned various other fashion and household items. Over the years, Hello Kitty became a globally recognizable brand and made its way into animated series and films, comics, video games, and various other media.

With more than 15 years of experience, Mei Kawajiri is much more than a manicurist—she’s a full-blown nail artist. Originally from Kyoto, Japan, she started out as a tattoo artist but transferred to nails after realizing permanent tattoos were too much of a commitment.

Now, she’s considered NYC’s most sought after nail artist, with clients as big as Gigi and Bella Hadid, as well as Ariana Grande. And with big names comes a big fashion statement. “I love drama,” said Kawajiri in an interview with WWD.

According to her, the biggest difference between Japanese and American nail art is that Japanese designs are “more abstract,” whereas her American clients “love to have a theme.” “Even 10 years ago, [Japan was] doing what we are doing in New York: big stones, crazy charms,” she explained. “Young girls save money for their nails instead of eating a lot of food. They wanna be skinny and they wanna have cool nail art.”

Her inspiration comes from the world around her, but she admits she tries no to be too influenced by other nail gurus. “As long as I don’t copy or I don’t watch other people’s Instagram, I’m good,” she stated. “I don’t watch nail Instagrams at all. If you see [something] one time, you have the idea already on the inside of your head. I don’t wanna be like that. I wanna be always original and new.”

Here are some of her fresh designs.

Folding paper can definitely be a work of art. But folding jeans, not so much, right? Well, you will have to think about that twice once you see how Turkish fashion designer Musab Kaya does it.

Kaya, who owns a fashion store in Turkey’s capital Istanbul, recently became a big internet star thanks to his ability to fold jeans in a single motion. One of the videos posted on his TikTok, which received 32 million views since being posted in April, sees him going down a row of jeans and perfectly folding each one with just one snap.

Kaya has shared a number of various videos in which he displays his excellent folding skills. In one of them, he decides to do it with just one hand but ends up with perfect results regardless.

The social media users are understandably amazed by how Kaya folds the jeans and have been asking for a tutorial in the comment section of his clips. But so far, the fashion designer has been keeping the secret of the trade to himself.

Check out a few more of Kaya’s folding videos below and see if you can figure out his technique.

Zena Holloway has a vision of the future where the material world “is grown, not made.“ But instead of waiting to see whether that future will materialize, she is trying to bring it to life today.

Holloway, a respected name in underwater photography, grows clothes and sculpture-like objects out of grass roots. She is considered a pioneer in this field, and her techniques and methods are laying the groundwork for sustainable fashion and art.

According to Holloway, she got the idea to use grass roots as a material while exploring solutions that would help solve the problem of plastic pollution. While doing some research at her local river, she noticed that the roots of a willow tree look similar to textiles. At that point, a thought crossed her mind: “What if we could grow clothes from seed?”

Holloway started working on bringing her idea to life and has managed to do so quite efficiently. She grows wheatgrass into beeswax templates, creating pieces of clothing, accessories, and sculptures out of grass roots. The final results are quite impressive and indicate that Holloway’s idea of sustainable fashion could actually be possible.

Carlo Amen is a talented tattoo artist who creates amazing effects with limited colors and shapes. With only a few colors and several carefully placed lines, he achieves what many can only hope for—creating recognizable work in his own unique style. His main inspiration comes from people and nature, so most of his works feature faces, bodies, or elements from nature. Of course, he also fulfills his clients’ wishes, but always stays true to his style.

Amen comes from a small French village, from an artistic family that encouraged his creativity from when he was a kid. Before he decided on living in Paris, he traveled for years and explored his artistic style. Today, he’s a co-owner of the tattoo studio called Les Maux Bleus. “Located in the heart of Paris, the studio is hidden at the back of a courtyard, under a glass roof which is a source of light and inspiration for the artists,” we read on the official website.

Make sure to check out his Instagram account where he currently has almost 60,000 followers. He posts photos of tattoos he did and it’s hard not to want one for yourself! You can see some of our favorite picks below.

Fashion illustrator Clym Evernden regards his approach to art as “very non-elitist.” “It doesn’t necessarily have to be something in a gallery or on a pedestal,” he explained in an interview with Regent Street Online, “it could be something on the street.”

Indeed, much like fashion, his art is living and breathing; his signature ink-based style—loose and playful. It’s his non-elitist approach that has caught the attention of huge brands—anything from Louis Vuitton and Audi to Net-A-Porter and Moët Hennessy.

A graduate of Central Saint Martins, Evernden studied BA Fashion Design Womenswear prior to working solely as an artist. Nowadays his work encompasses illustration as well as animation and campaign direction, with his work published on a variety of platforms including television commercials and onsite installations.

“What has always excited me about it, like clothing, is that it can play a part of everyday life,” he explained his love of art and fashion. “I love that it can be a sketch jotted on a post-it note, or a painting hanging in the National Gallery. I’m also excited by how it’s constantly evolving, aided by changes in how we consume, social media, etc.”

Take a look at some of his exciting work in the gallery below:

Scrolling through Bijou Karman’s Instagram feed, her inspiration is clear. Fashion, in its many shapes and forms, stands at the heart of what she does. Her illustrated characters, consisting almost entirely of women, don’t shy from making a fashion statement. In fact, they strive for it.

“I’ll take a runway image and create a whole story of who the girl is and where she would be,” Karman explained in an interview with Matter of Hand, where she mentioned her sources of inspiration. “I then place her in that situation within my illustration. That’s where a lot of my pieces start.”

But though her work zooms in on features like shoes and sunglasses, her work doesn’t necessarily comply with society’s beauty standards. “My work is not about trends at all,” says Karman, “that doesn’t interest me. If anything I like clothes that are more retro.”

Based in Los Angeles, Karman has graduated from the Art Center College of Design with a BFA in Illustration, but her interest in drawing began much earlier. “I’ve been into drawing since I was a little kid,” she recalled. “Eventually, something clicked and illustration became a major passion of mine,” she adds, noting that combining illustrating with fashion, another passion of hers, was only natural.

Founder of one of the most famous fashion brands in the world, Louis Vuitton was born on August 4th, 1821 in Lavans-sur-Valouse. In honor of his 200th birthday anniversary, the brand launched the mobile video game called Louis the Game, which offers a chance to discover its history.

The main character, the brand’s mascot Vivienne, walks through a world inspired by several cities like Paris, London, New York, Beijing, and Tokyo. Vivienne’s goal is to collect 200 candles as she walks through the world. The candles unlock cars with different anecdotes related to Vuitton. The character can wear accessories and clothes from some of the most iconic collections, and that’s not all.

“Join Vivienne on her adventures as she journeys to six vibrant locations across the globe in search of 200 collectible candles to celebrate our founder Louis Vuitton’s 200th Birthday. Each candle unlocks fascinating stories about the journeys of Louis, his family, and the Maison,” reads the game description on Google Play Store. It’s available for Android and iOS devices, so you can play it on your phone or tablet.

The game has one unique perk—it allows you to collect 30 NTFs as you play. They can’t be sold and you can keep them in your digital wallet.

For some people, getting a tattoo is all about having fun, seeing their body as a blank canvas, waiting to be filled with the works of artists from all around, creating whatever their hearts desire.
For others, there is significant meaning to each and every tattoo on them, and they are focused on symbolizing something significant for the world to take in and see.
However, things don’t always go according to plan, and if there’s anything that these hilarious tanked tattoo mishaps can teach us, it’s to think before you ink!
From grammatical errors to disproportionate drawings, there’s no doubt that you’ll be on the floor laughing and asking yourself how did the tattoo artist let this happen?

I’m also excited by how it’s constantly evolving, aided by changes in how we consume, social media, etc.”

Take a look at some of his exciting work in the gallery below:

Scrolling through Bijou Karman’s Instagram feed, her inspiration is clear. Fashion, in its many shapes and forms, stands at the heart of what she does. Her illustrated characters, consisting almost entirely of women, don’t shy from making a fashion statement. In fact, they strive for it.

“I’ll take a runway image and create a whole story of who the girl is and where she would be,” Karman explained in an interview with Matter of Hand, where she mentioned her sources of inspiration. “I then place her in that situation within my illustration. That’s where a lot of my pieces start.”

But though her work zooms in on features like shoes and sunglasses, her work doesn’t necessarily comply with society’s beauty standards. “My work is not about trends at all,” says Karman, “that doesn’t interest me. If anything I like clothes that are more retro.”

Based in Los Angeles, Karman has graduated from the Art Center College of Design with a BFA in Illustration, but her interest in drawing began much earlier. “I’ve been into drawing since I was a little kid,” she recalled. “Eventually, something clicked and illustration became a major passion of mine,” she adds, noting that combining illustrating with fashion, another passion of hers, was only natural.

Founder of one of the most famous fashion brands in the world, Louis Vuitton was born on August 4th, 1821 in Lavans-sur-Valouse. In honor of his 200th birthday anniversary, the brand launched the mobile video game called Louis the Game, which offers a chance to discover its history.

The main character, the brand’s mascot Vivienne, walks through a world inspired by several cities like Paris, London, New York, Beijing, and Tokyo. Vivienne’s goal is to collect 200 candles as she walks through the world. The candles unlock cars with different anecdotes related to Vuitton. The character can wear accessories and clothes from some of the most iconic collections, and that’s not all.

“Join Vivienne on her adventures as she journeys to six vibrant locations across the globe in search of 200 collectible candles to celebrate our founder Louis Vuitton’s 200th Birthday. Each candle unlocks fascinating stories about the journeys of Louis, his family, and the Maison,” reads the game description on Google Play Store. It’s available for Android and iOS devices, so you can play it on your phone or tablet.

The game has one unique perk—it allows you to collect 30 NTFs as you play. They can’t be sold and you can keep them in your digital wallet.

For some people, getting a tattoo is all about having fun, seeing their body as a blank canvas, waiting to be filled with the works of artists from all around, creating whatever their hearts desire.
For others, there is significant meaning to each and every tattoo on them, and they are focused on symbolizing something significant for the world to take in and see.
However, things don’t always go according to plan, and if there’s anything that these hilarious tanked tattoo mishaps can teach us, it’s to think before you ink!
From grammatical errors to disproportionate drawings, there’s no doubt that you’ll be on the floor laughing and asking yourself how did the tattoo artist let this happen?
