RENE GRUAU

Rene Gruau, master of fashion illustration was born in Italy in 1909 of an aristocraic Italian father and a French mother, Marie Gauau, whose name he took. He settled in Paris in 1924 and embarked on his career as a fashion illustrator. His earliest drawing were published in Italy, Germany and England.

While in his young teen years, he managed to sell some of his fashion sketches to magazines in France, Germany and Italy in 1923. He there upon took the maiden name of his artist mother, Gruau, and reinvented himself as Rene Gruau. His mother introduced him to painters and fashion magazine editors who encouraged him to pursue his craft. At the age of 15, he already had a promising career as a fashion illustrator awaiting him.

During the post-war period, he reached the summit of his career as he worked with the most brilliant fashion designers such as Dior, Givenchy and Lanvin, and high class music-halls such as the Moulin Rouge and the Lido - clients whom he continued to work with later on. He also designed costumes and sets for the ballet. By 1940 his drawings appeared in Marie Clarie, Femina and L’Officiel.

His art is characterised by his fluid, expressive, and seemingly effortless lines, and by his ability to distill his subjects to their essence for maximum effect - a mouth, a coiffure, a gesture, the structure of a garment is each described so convincingly, and with such graceful economy of means.

CEDRIC RIVRAIN

Cedric Rivrain is a famous fashion illustrator and artist from Paris. He has been drawing since the age of 18 and has illustrated and designed for prestigious fashion houses including John Galliano, Martine Sitbon and Yazbukey.
He spent most of his youth at a boarding school in the centre of France, his first drawing was of his mother, a particularly stylish woman who introduced him to fashion. 

His first illustration was actually a double spread for Dazed and confused. Her friend, Yaz Bukey, the jewellery and accessories designer, was offered this double spread to express herself. She liked his personal drawings and thought it would be a more poetic way to introduce herself to have drawing of her fantasy world. That is how he started.

The significance the anatomical plays for him can be seen in the band-aids adorning some of his subjects, it’s all that is covering their bodies of faces, as he nudes over designer clothing. Through bandage and dissection he distances himself from fashion to uncover its inherent beauty. Like most of his work, the book’s illustrations largely grow out of his childhood fascinations- cartoons, anatomy, and, of course, eyes.
Now the focus of his work, he has dedicated much of the book to eyes- specifically, mechanical eyes. He said drawings were better when you find the perfect emotion in the eyes could give emotion. His work is drop dead gorgeous and the way he draws jewellery and shoes is absolutely beautiful. 
The book combines his fashion illustrations, like images of Pivovarova in Balenciaga and Prada, with captivating nudes and chilling crying contraptions. And he think fashion illustration brings some poetry back to the commercial fashion world. It was something authentic and fashion images are all so digital now and with illustration. Rivrain’s book is not lacking in authenticity.
