Arie forever

Abstract

"The book celebrates the versatility and mastery of fashion illustrator Arie Vervelde (1951-2014) offering a lasting source of inspiration for many. Vervelde was far more than one of the most talented and internationally acclaimed fashion illustrators of his time. Beyond his sharp eye for fashion and trends, his work was deeply rooted in the human experience. The figures in his illustrations embody all genders, colours, cultures, shapes, and ages, radiating a vibrant sensuality - at times distinctly sexy or overtly erotic. They consistently exude strength and individuality, never succumbing to the role of mere fashion victims." --Idea Books WWW site, April 4, 2025.
