After illustrating at the Elie Saab show, I joined my friend, the blogger Asena Sarribatur for a nice afternoon coffee at Hotel Costes. It was a pleasant surprise when I noticed the blogger Olivia Palermo, the illustrator Megan Hess and the influencer @thegoldenfly sitting right next to me.
I was more than thrilled to just sit back and illustrate them all in this beautiful afternoon at Hotel Costes. Here are the illustrations
Illustrating Backstage this season at Elie Saab was just magical! It was my first time attending the Elie Saab Couture show and not the Ready to wear. Thus, I could definitely tell the difference in the makeup and the vibe of the collection. The show took place at Rue Cambon and included a magnificent venue and a lot of known faces as guests and as models.
Check out my live illustration session backstage with MAC at ELIE SAAB.
