BELLE & CLOVER
DIGITAL PORTRAITURE
OUR STORY
Ashleigh & Melissa met in 2006 while creating the outstanding children's collection for Ralph Lauren. Together as heads of the design and development teams respectively, they formed a strong partnership and planted the seeds for the collaboration that is Belle & Clover.
Ashleigh Crawford
Fashion Illustrator
I grew up in Ireland playing with the paper dolls my mother drew for me. Fast forward post fashion design degree in England, I built my fashion illustration career working for over 20 years along side Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein and Karl Lagerfeld Paris.
I have had work featured in British and American Vogue and Harpers Bazaar UK. Creating one of a kind digital paintings and drawings celebrating moments of shared love brings me so much joy. I hope you are inspired as you look through our portrait examples to create a special portrait to celebrate your love.
Melissa Cohen
For as long as I can remember, I wanted to work "in fashion". I grew up creating outfits for my Barbie dolls and spending countless hours poring over the pages of fashion magazines. The delivery of the September issue of Vogue was almost as exciting for me as my own birthday.
After years of working in the industry for incredible brands such as Ralph Lauren, Best and Company and Tommy Hilfiger, it is a dream come true to take this Belle and Clover journey with Ashleigh, and bring a little bit of fashion and a lot of joy to as many people as we can.
