Eugenie Zhan is a fashion illustrator now based in Melbourne. Previously she had been working in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast of Queensland. She has extensive experience working as a live event illustrator with clients like Cartier, Ralph Lauren, Maserati, Fendi, Mercedes Benz, Tiffany and Brisbane Fashion Month to name a few. Eugenie also does live fashion illustrating for weddings, parties and bridal showers.

How did it all start? Since she was young there has always been a passion for illustrating fashion, however this side hustle really grew whilst Eugenie was studying at university - not studying arts, surprisingly she was studying optometry! In 2015 she took the plunge and decided to volunteer live illustrating at the Sunshine Coast Fashion Festival, drawing designer looks live from the runway. She quickly found her niche. It was capturing the movement of fashion - in the moment. Then she went on to draw live for Undress Runways, Designer Q official and White Label Noba before working for Brisbane Fashion Month in 2017, where she had the privilege to present her live drawn artwork to Kellie Hush, former Editor-in-Chief of Harper's BAZAAR Australia . From there on she has worked with various designers, luxury brands, skincare, eyewear and jewellery.

So what is she up to now? Eugenie works as both a fashion illustrator and optometrist, balancing her week with some serious work and some creative fun. In 2023 Eugenie started studying her Bachelors of Fashion Design at RMIT Melb in pursuit of creating her sketches into reality!
