I unfortunately didn’t have time to go to any of the fashion shows or events for Paris Fashion Week last week but my friend, the very talented illustrator Damien Cuypers, was covering it for the New York Times. Have a front seat through Damien’s whimsical illustrations and enjoy the runway.

Damien at work. Isn't he cute?
Here is Damien's bio, in case you wanted to know more about him.
Damien Florébert Cuypers grew up between the Jura and Alps mountain ranges in east-central France. He graduated in 2006 from the prestigious arts college Ecole Emile Cohl in Lyon, France. His final year there he created an animation piece, “Le Trou De Mon Quai”, which was shown in many animation festivals worldwide, including the Rio Erotic Animation Festival. In 2010, he illustrated a children’s-book version of the iconic Rimbaud poem “Le Bateau Ivre,” which was published by the French Editions Courtes et Longues. Currently, he does a weekly illustration for the French fashion magazine Grazia as well as illustrations and animations, often in his unique crayon style, for New York Magazine, the New York Times’ T Magazine and the popular British website nowness.com. His work can be seen at damienflorebertcuypers.com and damienflorebertcuypers.tumblr.com. He is currently working on a few animation projects including a short film on farts and a philosophical mini series.
