Abstract:
Illuminated manuscripts, ornately illustrated texts, were popular in the Middle Ages. The ABCs of Fashion is a modern take on illuminated manuscripts. It combines the design of typography with fashion. Each letter of the alphabet represents a fashion related term that is then illustrated and defined. Various media were used to complete the illustrations-markers, colored pencils, watercolor pencils and Adobe Illustrator, a computer aided design software. The project was created to fuse passions and education while pushing the limits of ability.
