The Summer Series: Travel themed illustrations capture the fun of the season

Summer isn't over...yet. Certainly not with Federica Del Proposto's latest project The Summer Series, which celebrates the summer season, travel, women and fashion...basically, all the good stuff.

Two stylised women on a sailing boat with striped and yellow sails, set against a blue sea and golden horizon, in 1930s fashion illustration style

The Paris/Milan-based illustrator created her designs after being invited by Ventizeronove Graphic Studio and Milano Fashion Library to participate in a group exhibition about fashion in the 1930s. Taking a different approach to her usual style and chosen mediums, Federica explored digital coloration. To show the contrast, she has included both colour and monochrome versions of the same image.

As you'll see, it's difficult to pick a favourite, with both being stunning in their own way. See more at federicadelproposto.com.
