Upcoming Adventures in Invitations

I have a request to design wedding invitations and ephemera for a wonderful couple getting married at a lovely mansion in Connecticut this summer. Initially, I was sketching out some more Art Deco styles, but I’ve come to find out that the bride is inspired by Sabrina (Audrey Hepburn, not the Teenage Witch) so I’m trying some floral ideas inspired by the iconic dress worn by Audrey.

This is the dress. I love the poodles! 20140409-002215.jpg

And here’s a few sketches.

This one is most like the embroidery of the dress. 20140409-002419.jpg

There will no doubt be more to come. I think i may bring these flourishes in to Illustrator though, and see what happens.
