Live Illustrations for Sita 1910 at the Beverly Hills Hotel
There’s something truly special about creating art in a space where fashion, history, and personal style converge—and The Vault by Sita 1910 Trunk Show at the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel was exactly that.
Set within the timeless elegance of the hotel, the event brought together luxury knitwear, denim, discerning clientele, and a celebration of craftsmanship. I had the pleasure of joining The Vault by Sita 1910 for an intimate live illustration experience, offering guests custom artwork created in real time.
Throughout the trunk show, I illustrated guests live on the iPad, capturing their likeness and personal style with expressive, fashion-forward line work. Watching each illustration come to life became part of the experience itself—guests gathered, shared reactions, and connected over the artistry happening right in front of them. Each illustration was printed to create a one-of-a-kind keepsake, blending technology with the timeless charm of hand-drawn art.
In addition to personalized portraits, I created custom illustrations on canvas totes from Citizens of Humanity and AGOLDE. These elevated everyday essentials transformed into wearable works of art, with each tote uniquely illustrated for its owner. The combination of premium denim brands and bespoke artwork added a meaningful, personal layer to the shopping experience—luxury made intimate.
The atmosphere of the Beverly Hills Hotel provided the perfect backdrop: palm-lined views, classic interiors, and an effortless sense of old-Hollywood glamour. Paired with The Vault by Sita 1910’s expertly curated selection, the event felt both exclusive and inviting—an ideal setting for live art and meaningful customer interaction.
Live illustration events like this are about more than customization; they create moments. They invite guests to slow down, engage, and leave with something that tells a story. Whether it’s a digital portrait or a hand-illustrated tote, each piece becomes a memory of where they were, how they felt, and the experience they shared. I also created custom invitations, save the dates, and bag charms that were given in gift bags to clients.
I’m incredibly grateful to The Vault by Sita 1910 for the opportunity to be part of such a thoughtfully curated trunk show, and to everyone who stopped by to be illustrated. Events like these continue to remind me why I love bringing art into fashion spaces—where individuality, creativity, and connection take center stage.
If you’re interested in live illustration for your next event, trunk show, or brand activation, I’d love to create something memorable together.
