More great awards news! Dinara Mirtalipova‘s illustrations for Leila in Saffron were accepted into The Original Art Show at the Society of Illustrators. The exhibition, The Original Art: Celebrating the Fine Art of Children's Book Illustration, opens tonight – Thursday, November 14th, 6-9pm – at the Society of Illustrators (128 E. 63rd St.) in New York City.
Leila in Saffron, published by Zareen Jaffery’s new Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing imprint Salaam Reads, is the story of a shy young girl who discovers all the things that make her special. Dinara’s illustrations capture both the gentle tenderness of the love between a girl and her grandmother, and the exuberant colors, patterns and energy of their rich culture. Written by Rukhsanna Guidroz, Leila in Saffron was released in June 2019.

Pop-Up Stories, the Dinara Mirtalipova x iBlues Fall/Winter 2019 fashion collection, debuted last month in Milan. Inspired by pop-up books, fairytales, and the elements of fire, air, water and earth, Dinara’s custom prints and motifs for the chic Italian fashion brand led the seasonal direction of the stunning ready-to-wear collection.
“This season’s artsy collaboration is an eclectic and exuberant take on the world around us. A universe of vivid and colorful prints inspired by the four elements of nature brings to life a fun and dazzling attitude,” as described by iBlues, a division of the Max Mara family of fashion brands.
The only thing we’d change – being able to buy it in the US! The innovative brand is available in Europe, the UK and Asia.
