Timeline

1925

Joseph Eula (January 16, 1925 – October 27, 2004) was an American fashion illustrator.

Eula was born Joseph Eula in Norwalk, Connecticut, January 16, 1925, the second of four children.

His father died when he was two; Eula's mother, Lena, ran a grocery store to provide for the family.

1940

Being friends with photographer Milton Greene since the 1940s, he shared a flat with him in New York City and worked with him for Life magazine, upon his return from Europe.

1942

Eula graduated from high school in 1942, at age 17, and was enlisted in the 10th Mountain Division to serve in the Italian Campaign.

Subsequently, he fought in the Apennines and was awarded the Bronze Star.

1945

Upon his discharge in 1945, he enrolled at the Art Students League of New York.

His first illustrations as a student there were published in Town & Country magazine—whose editor at the time was Baron Nicolas de Gunzburg—and Saks Fifth Avenue.

1950

In the mid-1950s, Eula started working with Eugenia Sheppard, illustrating her syndicated column Inside Fashion in the New York Herald Tribune.

He later went on to work with Ernestine Carter in the London Sunday Times, covering European fashion.

This was common practice at the time, since the fashion salons were too small to accommodate photographers and writer–artist pairs had to be present to report on the trends and fashion shows.

Among his work for American Vogue and The New York Times, Eula also had a long-standing association with Italian Harper's Bazaar.

1958

In this occupation he notably covered Yves Saint Laurent's first (1958) and last (2002) collections, and was a house artist for several other designers, including Coco Chanel, Hubert de Givenchy, Gianni Versace, Christian Dior and Karl Lagerfeld.

He maintained a friendly relationship with some of these distinguished figures of the fashion world, especially with Coco Chanel, whose collections he often drew.

He is known to have attended an Yves Saint Laurent couture show on one occasion, only to shout out that it was terrible after a brief time and walk out; his friendship with Yves Saint Laurent and his partner, Pierre Bergé, remained unaffected.

1960

He was a prominent illustrator in the 1960s and 70s, having held the post of creative director at Halston for ten years.

He also had close personal and professional relationships with leading figures of other artistic fields, designing a suit for jazz musician Miles Davis, in addition to the stick-like figures on the cover of his 1960 album Sketches of Spain, concert posters for The Supremes (Lincoln Center, New York, 1965) and Liza Minnelli's Liza with a "Z" (1972).

1968

Parting with Greene in 1968, Eula went into theatre where his work on a Broadway production of Private Lives earned him a Tony Award.

1969

He also designed sets and costumes for Dances At a Gathering (1969) and later costumes for The Goldberg Variations at the request of Jerome Robbins of the New York City Ballet.

In the early 70s Joe Eula was a freelance creative art director consultant to Halston Ltd., American Vogue, Interview magazine, and numerous publications.

1973

In 1973, he designed the backdrop of a presentation by five American designers (including Halston) to five French couturiers at Versailles.

Due to a botched conversion from imperial to metric units, the drapery they were to use came out short.

He famously remedied the situation by adding a white paper strip and sketching the Eiffel Tower with black stove paint and a broom.

He was to remain at Halston as a creative director for most of the 70s.

1974

In 1974 he became a consultant for the newly created Halston Enterprise Inc. His role was creative director of all Halston images, ad campaigns, and collections from 1974 to 1980.

2004

Eula died in hospital on October 27, 2004, at the age of 79, in Kingston, New York.

He had been hospitalized for pneumonia and a bad reaction to his chemotherapy.

At the time of his death, Eula lived in Manhattan and Hurley, New York.
