The tiger is a symbol of power, strength, aggression, dynamism, and sensuality. It was only natural then for fashion and graphic designer Penter Yip to use it as the inspiration for the latest edition of his ever popular diary, the Fashionary.
Yip, who launched the Fashionary in 2008, has hit all the right notes with his products and the Fashionary line now includes a wide range of useful stationery aimed at people working at all levels of the fashion industry, from the classic diaries with Men and Womenswear templates ideal for fast figure sketching, to foldable sketch pads in various sizes and elegant notebooks developed in collaboration with fashion designers.
Yip's classic Fashionary has also turned into the main sketchbook for various worldwide brands and design teams who employ it to speed up their production.
The new Tiger Mania Fashionary (A5 size; $24.90) includes 30 pages of extensive fashion glossary, body measurements, unit system tables, and basic notions (names of seams/stitches and knitting information have also been added) for quick reference, and 400 dot-like figure templates on the remaining pages.
The diary features a golden or silver tiger-patterned fabric cover, coloured elastic band, contrast colour bookmark thread and yellow or violet book edge.
"This is our limited edition for the coming Christmas," Yip told Irenebrination. "Our team travelled throughout Asia a lot this year and was totally inspired by the wildlife, especially by tigers, and we decided to turn them into our main inspiration this winter. The Golden tiger and Silver tiger Fashionary call to mind the Siberian tiger and the White tiger. The colours and patterns are specially designed by our team and we hope they will bring some excitement to all designers and fashionistas alike."
Are you a Golden or Silver Tiger? You decide, but do so as soon as you can since this is a limited edition and stocks may finish soon (you can order it from the online shop as well).
