Lado (drawing of the day/ crtež dana)


Hello everyone! Have I ever talked to you about my love for folklore? I've always been keen on exploring folklore dresses and costumes, mostly because I find them to be very inspirational. In my view, folklore is one of the best fashion inspiration out there. The diversity and the beauty of international folklore dresses and costumes is enough to leave anyone impressed. Here I illustrated one of Croatian national costumes ( we have a lot of them), worn by Croatian national folklore dance ensemble Lado. As a reference for this drawing, I used a photograph from Lado's official catalog. The medium is coloured pencils on papers.

Zdravo svima! Jesam li sa vama ikada pričala o svojoj ljubavi  prema folkloru? Uvijek sam voljela istraživati folklorne nošnje i kostime, većinom zato jer su mi toliko nadahnjujući. Po mome mišljenu, folklor je jedno od najboljih modnih nadahnuća koji postoji. Raznolikost i ljepota međunarodnih folklornih nošnji i kostima je dovoljna da svakoga ostavi zadivljenim. Ovdje sam ilustrirala jednu od hrvatskih narodnih nošnji (imamo ih puno), kako su ga nosile djevojke iz hrvatskoga ansambla narodnih plesova i pjesama. Kao referencu za ovaj crtež , koristila sam fotografiju iz Ladovoga službenoga kataloga. Medij su bojice na papiru.

  45. Hey Ivana, I love folklore too. Our new reading program has folktales embedded and I just love and enjoy reading it them to my students. They too too. I like how you showed the beginning of the costumes and then the finished product. I can see even through the image how much fun it must have been for them.
    But darling how are you doing? it's been a while. I hope all is well.
