As an illustrator, Coco’s background gives a unique insight into fashion. After spending five years studying fine art in Paris, she worked as a communication consultant for many leading fashion designers.In 2004 she moved to London to co found “getconfused” a
company which offers consultancy and creative solutions to clients from all around the world.

She began producing illustrations as a favour to friends in the fashion industry who needed them for lookbooks, magazines and websites. On the trail of those, she started to receive press interest which have spurred her to create imagery for publications spanning both the independent and mainstream press. Her inspiration comes in a wide variety of places and sources. Living between Paris and London she feels at ease with the visual landscapes of both cities. As art and fashion capitals, she feels they are a byword for innovation, creativity and metropolitan edge. As she was trained in the field of fine art, art & design seem to always influence her work but she tries to work from a wide range of sources from modern iconography. Bauhaus, Art Deco to artists as diverse as painter Salvadore Dali, photographers Guy Bourdin, Steven Meisel and Solve Sundsbo, designers Josef Albers or more recently M&M are amongst some of my strongest visual references.

She is constantly trying to experiment and merge classic techniques such as pencil, watercolor, pastel or Indian ink with the new computer processes. Then she composes the final montages in Photoshop. She believes that this hybrid work offers her an opening onto possibilities which she has not completely exploited. She likes to mix several techniques but aims for restraint and minimalism in the finished work as she likes the results achieved from combining these two approaches.
