Julie Verhoeven

My wife Kelly really digs the work of Julie Verhoeven, an avant-garde fashion illustrator for magazines like The Face and Dazed and Confused. In 2002, her work appeared on the runways in the form of illustrated handbags by Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton. She also created cartoons for a performance by electrocrash band Fischerspooner and the cover for Primal Scream and Kate Moss's "Some Velvet Morning" album. Verhoeven has her own fashion brand, Gibo, with boutiques in London and New York. We bought her new monograph, published in Japan by Gas. Now we really want her first book, Fat-Bottomed Girls.
