GuppyGlow S/S 2026 Fashion Illustrations
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
Fashion Illustration Brief – GuppyGlow S/S 2026
Project Overview
GuppyGlow is a gender-inclusive streetwear brand with a strong focus on womenswear-inspired silhouettes. Inspired by the Chili Red Mosaic Dumbo Ear Guppy, the collection blends bold artistic expression, modern streetwear, and sustainability.
Illustration Requirements
The illustrator will create six garment sketches:
Flat Sketches (Black & White, Front View Only) – Technical outlines showing construction.
Final Fashion Sketches (Colored, Front View Only) – Fully rendered with accurate colors, textures, and fabric details.
Garments & Sketching Details
Each piece should reflect fluidity, shimmer, and guppy-inspired textures, with womenswear-focused fits but adaptable for all genders. All designs should incorporate guppy tail patterns in some form—whether through flowing silhouettes, curved seam lines, or organic shapes that mimic the natural movement of guppy tails.
