Emma Tshirt

As a life-long Jane Austen fan, it was a joy to design for screen-printing an illustration of Jane Austen’s well-loved character, Emma. In light of the 2020 adaptation of the movie coming out, I felt it was the perfect time. This piece is my own combination of the three primary versions of Emma in film. I took themes, language, colors, costuming, etc., from the various versions, but incorporated my own modern, simplified style. By illustrating the posed clothes without the girl inside them, I intended to illustrate how Emma places too much importance on society and style but eventually learns what truly matters in life.
