Peter Dundas corralled his usual model-heavy crowd for a party to showcase fashion illustrations.

The art of the fashion illustration was celebrated Thursday night at a private home near Miami Beach, where Peter Dundas corralled his usual model-heavy crowd to showcase the Dream Makers exhibition he put together of fashion illustrations, curated with Artemis Baltoyanni.

“I think it’s been a passion of mine for my whole career — it’s one of the reasons why I’m a designer today,” Dundas said of the illustrations. “When we started talking about doing something during Art Basel, we came up with this; it was a very honest and natural decision to go this way. I think it’s an art form that really deserves more focus.”

“Basically the same time you are allotted to make a collection today,” Dundas said. “I think it’s such an interesting counterpoint to how we get our fashion information today, which is mainly social media, but that’s how I discovered most of this as well. So there is that discrepancy.”
