This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at McGill chapter.
The distinction between fashion and style straddles an imposing capital “F” and uncompromising individuality, and illustration has the power to convey this subtlety through mere suggestion. With one stroke here and a smudge (or two) there, sketches illustrate the character and essence of their subjects with a captivating and enduring specificity.
Here are my attempts to capture the uncompromising individualities and characters on campus, be it in front of Redpath or on the steps on the MacDonald-Harrington building. Here is McGill, one line at a time. (Photos inspired by those on: TheSartorialist.com and Copenhagenstreetstyle.dk)
