Hi, I’m D’Arcy and I’m an artist and illustrator of things that I love and that catch my eye.
I have been in the fashion industry for over 30 years, firstly as a model and then successfully completing a BA in Art and Design and followed by the Womenswear Design Degree at London College of Fashion. I also worked in design and production with a London based womenswear label.
The experience of wearing all levels of designers to studying design and garment construction, gave me the chance to take note of and become fascinated with the little intricacies of fashion. The simplicity of a toile, the internal structure of a corset and the designers label which often tells a story of its own, to name a few.
I have had the pleasure of collaborating with clients such as Summerill & Bishop, Beaverbrook hotel and have had work feature in Tatler Magazine.
I work with all mediums - watercolour, acrylics and oils, as they all offer unique texture and movement to bring the illustrations to life.
If you’d like to collaborate or just know a bit more, I’d love to hear from you.
Please drop me a line below and let me know what you think!
