How to Draw Fashion Sketches
In the fashion world, new designs are presented in the form of handdrawn sketches before theyre actually cut and sewn. First you draw a
croquis, the model-shaped figure that serves as the base of the sketch.
The point is not to draw a realistic-looking figure, but a blank canvas of
sorts on which to display illustrations of dresses, skirts, blouses,
accessories and the rest of your creations. Adding color and details like
ruffles, seams and buttons helps to bring your ideas to life.Fashion is

PART-1 TO 3
Starting Your SketchGather materials.
Choose a hard lead pencil (H pencils are best) that makes light, sketchy
marks that are easy to erase. Marks made with these pencils also don't
indent the paper, which is helpful when you want to add color to the
image. A good quality eraser and thick paper are also important

materials to have if you want your sketch to look professional.

If you dont have the right type of pencil, you can do a sketch with a
number 2. Just remember to make very light marks, rather than
pressing hard on the page.
Drawing in pen is not advisable, since you wont be able to erase
marks you make.
You will also need colored markers, inks or paints to illustrate your
clothing designs.
Decide on a pose for your croquis.
The model for your design, called a croquis, should be drawn in a pose
that will show off the items best. You can show the model walking,
sitting, bending, or in any other position. As a beginner, you may want
to start with the most common pose, which is a runway sketch that
shows a model standing or striding on a runway. This is easiest to
draw and it will allow you to illustrate all of your designs in full view.
Since you want to illustrate your designs in a way that makes them
look professional and appealing, it's important to model

them on

croquis that are well-proportioned and well-drawn.

Many fashion illustrators practice drawing hundreds of croquis to
perfect their ability to create a variety of poses.

Consider alternate methods for creating a croquis.

It's nice to be able to draw your own croquis, since it allows you to
create a model to the exact proportions you want. However, if you want
to jump straight to drawing your clothing designs, there are a few
shortcuts you can opt to take:
Download one online, where you'll find them in a range of shapes and
sizes. For instance, you can download a croquis in the shape of a child,
a man, a petite woman, and so on.
Make a croquis by tracing the outline of a model from a magazine ad
or another picture. Just place a piece of tracing paper over the model
you like and lightly created an outline.
PART -2 TO 3
Draw the balance line.
This is a the first line of your sketch, and it represents your models
center of gravity. Draw it from the top of the head to the tip of the toes,
along the backbone of your croquis. Now draw an oval to represent the
head. This is the base of your croquis, and from this, a proportional
drawing can be made. You can think of the croquis as the skeleton of the
model.
The balance line should be a straight vertical line, even if you want the

model to pose in a leaning position. For example, if you want the the
model to be posed with her hips tilted slightly to her left, draw a
straight balance line in the middle of the page. You want this line to
extend from the top of the model's head to the ground that she is
standing on.
Note that when youre designing clothes, a proportional model isn't
required, because the clothing is what is being showcased, not your
figure drawing skills. Dont worry too much about creating an accurate
looking model or adding features to the face.
Start drawing the pelvic area first.
Draw a square with equal side lengths on the balance line just below
the middle, where the pelvis is naturally positioned on the body. Size the
square according to how wide you want your model to be. A thinner
model would have a smaller square width than a plus-sized model.
Keeping your desired pose in mind, tilt this pelvic square either left or
right. For example, if you want your models hips slanted to the left,
tilt the square slightly to the left. If you want a normal standing model,
just draw the square upright without any angles left or right.
Draw the torso and shoulders.
Extend the torso lines upward from the two corners of the pelvic

square. The torso should extend upwards, bending in midway at the

waist and extending out again at the shoulder. As with a real human
body, the shoulders should be the same width as the hips, or the top of
the pelvic box. #*When youre finished, the torso should look like a
normal torso you would see on a body. Refer to pictures of models in
magazines or advertisements for reference. Notice how the waist is
smaller than the lower portion of the body and hips. The torso should
measure about two heads in length.
Its common to sketch the shoulders and hips tilted in opposite
directions, in a position called contrapposto, or counter-pose. This gives
the impression of movement. Draw the waist as a horizontal line thats
shorter than the shoulder and hips lines.
Pay attention to bend lines (the curve of the rib cage, etc.) as those
angles and lines are crucial to creating a figure that doesn't

look like it

has dislocated body parts.

Sketch the neck and head.
The model's neck should be a third the width of the shoulder and half
the length of a head. After drawing this, sketch in the head, which
should be in proportion to the body. The bigger the head, the more
juvenile or younger the model looks.

 You can erase the initial oval you drew to represent the head.
Draw the head so that it looks natural with the pose you have
selected. You can tilt it slightly up or down, or to the right or left.
Fill in the legs.
The legs should the longest part of the body, the length of about four
heads. The legs are also portioned into two pieces, the thighs (from the
bottom of the pelvic box to the top of knees) and calves (from the bottom
of knees to beginning of ankles). Keep in mind that fashion illustrators
usually exaggerate the model's height by making her legs longer than
her torso
The top of each thigh should be approximately the same width as the
head. Taper the width of each leg from the thigh to the

knee. By the

time you reach the knee, the leg should be one third the width of the
bigger portion of the thigh.
To draw the calves, taper down to the ankles. Each ankle should be
about one fourth the width of the head.
Finish with the feet and arms.
The feet are relatively narrow. Draw them like elongated triangles that
are about the same length as the head. Construct the arms like the legs,
tapered toward the wrists. Make them longer in proportion to the torso

than a real persons arms would be, since this gives a more stylized
impression. Add the hands and fingers last.
PART 3 TO 3
Drawing Clothes and Accessories
Illustrate your original design.
Think about what look youre trying to create, and represent it down to
the last detail. If youre designing a dress, for example, add patterns,
ruffles, text, bows, and so on to create a beautiful piece. Focus on the
elements of your design that are unique, and include appropriate
accessories so that the style youre going for is clear. If you need some
fresh ideas or don't know where to start, look up fashion trends on the
internet or in magazines for inspiration.
Sketch the clothes boldly.
Since the purpose of a fashion drawing is to showcase your design
ideas, use a bolder hand when youre drawing the clothing. Sketch the
clothes so that they appear to hang on the croquis in a realistic way.
There should be creases around the elbows and at the waste, as well as
near the shoulders, ankles and wrists. Think about how clothing hangs
on a person and replicate that on your model.
Remember that different fabrics and structures lie on the body in

different ways. If the fabric is thin and silky, it will rest on the body and
drift away, almost billowing. If the fabric is thick like denim or wool, it
will be boxier and will show less shape of the body (think denim
jackets).
Try to illustrate the texture of the fabric youre drawing, whether its
smooth, coarse, stiff or soft. Add details like sequins and buttons to
make the drawing look more realistic.
Learn how to draw folds, wrinkles and pleats.
Use different types of lines to create different creases in the fabric
you're drawing. Knowing how to draw folds, wrinkles and pleats will
help you illustrate the structure of the garment.
Folds can be drawn using loose, wavy lines.
Use circular patterns to show wrinkles.
Take out a straight edge to draw exact pleats.
Illustrate patterns and prints.
If your design includes a patterned or printed fabric, it's important to
accurately illustrate how it will look on a model. Start by drawing the
outline of the patterned garment, such as a skirt or blouse. Divide it into
a grid with different sections. Fill in the sections one at a time with the
pattern on the fabric.

 Pay attention to how folds, pleats and wrinkles change the

appearance of a pattern. It may need to bend or be cut off at certain
points to look accurate.
Take the time to draw the pattern in detail and make sure it looks the
same across the entire grid.
Finalize the drawing with shading, ink and color.
Use thick black ink or paint on the lines that you want to keep. You can
erase the body shaping lines and any stray pencil marks at this point.
Finally, carefully color in the clothing using hues you want your
designs to have.
You can color in the clothing with markers, ink or paint. Mix colors
and use a variety of shades to illustrate your designs.
Really imagine the design moving towards you under spotlights on a
runway when youre working on shading and texture. Deeper folds in
fabric will result in darker shades of the color you're using. Where
fabric is hit by the light, the colors should appear lighter.
Adding features like hair, sunglasses and makeup is a nice final touch
that will make your fashion sketch come to life.
Consider making flats.
In addition to making a fashion illustration, you may want to create a

flat schematic. This is an illustration of your clothing design that shows

the flat outline of the garment, as though it were laid out on a flat
surface. It's helpful for people viewing the design to see the flat version
as well as the way it would look modeled on a body.
Flats should be drawn to scale. Make an effort to create illustrations
that look as exact as possible.
You should include a back view of your flats as well, especially of the
back of the design includes unique details.

How to Be a Fashion Designer Without Lessons
Do you have a thing for fashion? do you want to become a loved
designer without going to a special school? your in luck! read the
following below to learn how!
Make sure that you have all of your materials.
You need a sewing kit and money for fabric. For detailed look, you need
a needle and thread. You may need a measuring tape for when you're
making clothing.
Look at what's in style.
Walk in the mall to see what clothes they are selling. You can also see

what everyone is wearing to figure out what type of clothing people

would want to buy.
Get the right kind of fabric.
Go to the nearest fabric or craft store near you. If you want to make a
polka-dot dress, then get fabric with dots and get the right amount of
fabric.
Sketch out what you want to make on paper.
It's always a good idea to draw what you want to make first. You get
an idea of how it's going to turn out. You don't have to be an artist to
sketch it. Just try your best and make your sketch look exactly how you
want it to be.
Start making your design.
You break up the steps to make it easier to make it. You can start with
whatever you want to, but make sure that it will work out. You can ask
a parent or someone you know to help you with this. If you listen to
music while doing this, it will inspire you to work harder.
When you're done, sell it!
It's good to start by selling your designs in your neighborhood. After
you are sure that you are good enough, you can start a company that
sells your designs.

It's also a good idea to sell different styles of clothing.

People will see that you have a wide variety of clothing and buy your
designs even more.
Don't give up if nobody buys your clothes.
Just practice more and try a different style to make. If you have no luck
with anything, then just try making skirts. They are cute and simple.
Some can be very expensive so that's good
How You Become A Fashion Designer In School Age
How You Become A Fashion Designer In School Age
Becoming a fashion designer at a young age isn't easy. However, time
is on your side and you have decades of creative evolution ahead of you,
so hang in there and have faith that what you're learning now will set
you in good stead for a great future.
Setting up
Get the gear you'll need for designing with.
You'll need sketch books, colored pencils and art supplies. Use good
quality paper and tools at all times, as you need to create good quality
drawings.
Read widely about fashion.

Grab hold of all you can about fashion. This includes reading about the
history of fashion and biographies of fashion designers. Also read about
how to do fashion designing, to find out the sorts of challenges, pitfalls
and tips you need to know.
Improve your drawing and design skills.
If you're not yet old enough to attend a design school, at least get
drawing or art lessons. These will help you to discover good drawing
techniques and will allow you to perfect styles that work best for you.
Tell the art teacher what you're hoping to do and they might help you
do more fashion-related projects. Eventually, it is a good idea to aim for
getting a qualification in fashion design; it's a very competitive world
now and education can set you ahead of others. It's not for everyone but
it certainly can help.
Learn to sew.
If you don't already know how to do this, get some lessons. It will be
invaluable to know how cloth works in relation to stitching, texture,
cuts and flow, etc. and only someone able to sew will truly get a feel for
this. Fashion design is both art and hard slog, so don't be afraid to get
deeply involved with your sewing machine. It'll be quite some time
before you can order someone else to do the sewing from your designs!

 Knowing how to read, use and design patterns is an essential part of

being a good fashion designer. Start with reading and using, then move
to making your own. The more comfortable you are with patternmaking, the less tempted you'll feel to reuse stale ideas.
Learn all that you can about fabrics.
Fabrics are diverse and include both natural and manmade, and
mixtures of the two. There are modern and vintage fabrics to learn
about too, and you should make a decision as to which you prefer.
Knowing how fabric handles is essential for a good designer, and the
earlier you learn this, the better. There are good reference books in
libraries about fabrics you can borrow from the library; these will
teach you about the weft and weave, about textures, strength,
behavioral qualities of the fabrics, etc.
Designing
Be inspired without being a copycat.
All artists are inspired by prior artists; it is how art grows and
changes over time. However, it is also important to find your own
expression and not fall slave to certain styles or fads that won't stand
the test of time and won't let you stand apart.

Allow yourself to develop over time. You can't expect to have your style
emerge overnight; it will take time and it will also require constant
noting of the things you like and how you'd use them within your own
designs.
Keep secret Pinterest boards. Add the fashion inspirations to it as you
come across them. Use this to keep a track of things that you think
would be good to evolve or merge into your own designs.
Improvise.
Use the cloth, the colors and the patterns to inspire you and bring forth
creative and unique ideas.
Give yourself room to change.
You will find that your ideas change over time; that's good, it keeps
your designing fresh. However, you might like to come up with a
"signature" element to your designs that can be carried through your
works over the years. Think about what element that might be nowit
might be a particular cut, a color or pattern, an addition to one part of
the clothing, etc.
Getting experience
Visit fashion design studios.
Explain what you're hoping to do. Ask them if you can see what they do

and maybe even ask for work experience. You may need to sign a
confidentiality agreement saying that you won't share what you've seen
or copy anything; that's standard, as it protects them.
If you offer to intern, you might end up with an employment offer if
you're good at what you do.
You Should Be Idea Adout Clothing Line
Start a Cloting Line
So, you dream of starting your own trendy clothing line? To be
successful, you'll have to learn how to run a business, market your
products, and keep your customers happy. Here are some basics on
getting started in the clothing and fashion business.
You Idea About Your Aim In Fashion Designer Means Idea
How to Get Noticed
Whether you want to get noticed on YouTube, get noticed at school, get
noticed for a promotion or get noticed by your oblivious love interest,
Get started with Step 1 below to get on your way to being the center of
attention.
How to Act
Respect yourself.
When other people see that you don't respect yourself, they begin to

worry (sometimes just subconsciously) that maybe you aren't worthy

of respect. Show them how deserving you are by taking good care of
yourself and showing them how much you think you're worth. Eat
healthy, exercise, and practice good bodily hygiene (like taking a
shower, brushing your teeth, and wearing deodorant).
Dress like you mean business.
You should always been dressed like you expect to get noticed. Don't
wear clothes that don't fit, look bad on your body, or have stains, tears,
or wrinkles. These are indicators that you don't want to be seen.
Instead, dress nicer than everyone else and put work into what you
wear.
Act confident.
Confidence is a very attractive quality. If you're confident, more people
will notice you and will look to you for guidance and help (whether they
know it or not). From people you're dating to people you work for,
everyone will notice when you start acting confident. Speak up for
yourself, make decisions, speak like you're sure, and stop talking like
you're less. Definitely stop apologizing when you do every little thing.
Be social.
If you want to get noticed, you're going to have to start by getting out
there. Talk to people, go to events, and make friends. You want to build
a network (of friends, customers, future employers or coworkers, or

even just people that can help you find a date).

Be friendly.
Be nice to people. Be positive. Be friendly. If you're a jerk who talks
about others behind their back or gets randomly angry or vengeful
over slights, then people will worry that they'll be next to get your
mean-treatment. People might say that they like that whole cut-throat,
"I'll do anything to get what I want" attitude, but really it makes people
suspicious. If you're a pleasant person to be around, then you're much
more likely to get help from them, promotions, or positive social (and
romantic!) attention when you need it
Be current.
You know how you kind of worry about your parents when they keep
dressing like it's 1986? Other people will worry about you if you're
basically just rehashing old stuff, whether it's ideas, styles, or practices.
Clinging to old ways is a sign that you don't know how to change and
that you can't be creative. Instead, try to get out on the edge, constantly
pressing for new and better ways of doing things.
What to Do
Take initiative.
Grab life by the horns. Be involved with everything that's going on
around you. Don't wait for things to happen to you or for you, just get
out there and make them happen. Whether you're asking your friend

out on a date after 5 years of do-they-don't-they drama, asking for a

promotion at work, or sending your demo to every record label on the
planet: do what you have to do to start getting yourself where you
want to be. The best thing to do if you want people to notice you is to
make them notice you.
Take smart risks.
To get noticed, you want to set yourself apart. You want to have
something to offer that no one else can offer. The best way to do that is
to take smart risks. Do something big but do it right. Weigh the risk vs
the gain and only take the leap if it's worth it to you. Generally it's scary
to take risks, and you might be reluctant, but you'll never get anywhere
exciting in life by staying safe and in the same place your whole life.
Roll with the punches.
Be flexible. Don't panic when things don't go according to plan. When
something negative happens, turn it into a positive. When something
positive happens, find a way to help carry that over for a rainy day.
Your boss will be impressed, but that guy you like will also know that
no matter what craziness happens in life, you can help him get through
it without breaking a sweat.
Be a good leader and teammate.
Leadership and a good ability to work with others is attractive to
everyone from your manager at work to your teacher at school to that
girl you really want to date. Take control of situations when you can,

keep people motivated and working hard, and sacrifice your own glory
for the good of the team when the time comes. People will notice
because this behavior shows that you're a winner...and they'll all want
you on their team.
Go above and beyond.
People will tell you that in order to get noticed you have to work hard,
but you're probably already working hard (and if you're not, start,
because nothing's going to just fall into your lap). What you have to do
is not just work hard but go above and beyond the call of duty. No
matter what you're doing, whether it's work or trying to win your
crush, you have to do more than what's expected in order to show
people just how great you are.
Constantly improve yourself.
You should work to constantly get better and keep your work and skills
fresh and ever changing. Stagnant work or personality gets boring and
people will get tired of you. Keep them interested and keep yourself
happy by keeping your life and work exciting and new. This also means
getting really good at what you do, and this is another great way to get
noticed.
Be really good at what you do.
When someone is clearly very dedicated and good at what they do, that
catches people's attention. You become known as That Woman or That
Guy. You're the one. The one they remember because they know if they

ever want to do something like what you do, they're going to call you
for help. Get good, really good, at the thing you do. It takes practice,
time, and dedication but you can do it.
Get involved.
Even if you're not necessarily good at what you do, another way to
catch some positive attention is to always be involved. Get in on
projects, volunteer your extra set of hands for whatever you can, and
start doing things. Simply being the person that shows up when
everyone else is off doing something else can get you attention from the
people that matter.
Specific Help

How to Run a Fashion Show After Job
IF YOU GOT A FASHION DESIGNER JOD FOR THAT IT IS I THINK
THAT IS "HOW TO RUN A FASHION SHOW"
How to Run a Fashion Show
Whether you are planning a professional fashion show, a student show,
or just want to have fun, there are several steps to take into account
before the big day. Follow these simple steps and you'll have a show in
no time!
step-1 Design a collection or seek local designers to make garments for
the show.
step-2

Select a venue.

This is important to do before anything as you need enough time to

reserve the location. Without a venue there is no show. You can have a

fashion show anywhere! Just make sure the venue is large enough to
hold guests, workers and the equipment needed for the night. Also
ensure there are rest rooms available and visible fire exits in cases of
emergencies.
Make a floor plan of how you want your runway, where the
guests will be seated, where the bar (if any) will be located,
will you have a buffet of food or will there be people serving
canapes.
Having this mapped out will organize and maximize your
space. Also consider if you'll have a runway at all. Some designers have
held exhibitions like art galleries where models stood in statue-like
poses. Rick Owen's took fashion show to new heights in Paris 2013 for
his s/s 2014. You can watch his show on YouTube.
Consider decor.
Attention to detail is imperative. Will you have flowers? If so, what
kind of flowers? Will there be fabric hung from the walls? What is the
color scheme? What mood are you trying to invoke on your guests
when they enter? These are questions that will determine how much
detail you've placed into the show. Make sure not to over do it eithersometimes less is more. To make it easier on yourself, you should make
a mood board- this should contain colors to consider, fabrics or
materials, lighting, food that will be served, etc. Consider everything.
Design the invitation and market.

Decide on a date (make sure to give yourself enough time, especially if

you're doing the show on your own). Make an invite on photo shop or
illustrator- or have a friend do it! Once that has been finalized, make a
list of people who you would like to attend your show. Are you doing it
for publicity? If so, you need press and lots of it if you're a new
designer. You should send them to magazines that feature new talent,
bloggers, photographers, models, etc.
If you are running low on funds try sponsor ships.
Many companies will give you samples, bags or raffle gifts if you ask.
You can search for PR companies online. Send emails and ask if they
are willing to offer anything. Another good way of this is by going to
the store yourself and asking a manager if this is possible. If the
manager is not available ask when he/she is next in. Do not believe an
associate will pass on the message. Be professional and per
Host a model casting!
This is great fun and can be done in several ways. You can place an ad
anywhere with time and location for an open casting. Make sure that if
you decide on this route that you have a time slot and are available for
that time. Nothing is worse than going to an open casting and no one is
there- you've wasted their time and may have lost a potential model. If
you are seeking professional models then be prepared to pay them per
day. If you are seeking new models- fresh faces- you can place a free ad

on Starnow.com where you can browse through categories of models,

actors, singers, photographers, etc. ModelMayhem is also a good site to
check out. You should a sheet for them to fill out with contact
information, measurements, a photo (you will take on the day of) and
shoe size. You can find a pre- made sheet on Google by typing in model
sheet or Model Casting.
Book hair stylists, make up artist and photographers for the
day of the show.
You can see if a near by salon will be willing to do it free of charge in
exchange for their logo to be printed on the tickets. If you can get stylist
and make up artist from a school, that would be better as they are
always willing to do it for the experience. You can also find many on
Starnow. Make sure to ask for their portfolio. Show them the ideas or
styles you have in mind, they can give you expert advice in what would
work best. ** Make sure not to allow them to alter your designs or
ideas. Take their advice but at the end of the day it is YOUR show**
Please also be aware of the type of hair style or make up you are after.
If your garments are extravagant, then keep everything else to a
minimum. Consider closings and if it is pulled over the head how it
would affect the hair. You should have at least 2 photographers for the
day of the event. Take back stage images and images during the event.
If you want to record it you need to consider 2 cameramen, lighting and

an editor.
It Very Importance Part Of Is Book
Education
Earn a high school diploma.
There are no official educational requirements for becoming a tailor.
As a general rule, though, you should at least have a high school
diploma or GED, especially if you intend to work as a tailor for a larger
fashion company.
Check with your high school to see if there are any classes that might
prove relevant to the field. At the very least, you should

try to take a

home economics course. Some high schools may even have more indepth sewing courses that can teach you about fashion design, hand
sewing, and industrial power sewing.
Take art electives to help you develop a better aesthetic taste so that
you will be more prepared to work with color and style. Make sure
that your classes also help you maintain basic math skills so that you
will have no problem working with measurements.
A business class or two can also help if you plan on becoming a selfemployed tailor.
Work-study courses can be beneficial, too, since the instructor might

be able to help you land work with someone in the fashion industry.
Take college level courses.
Even though you do not need to have a college degree, you can benefit
from taking college classes about fashion and design.
In addition to being beneficial for your own improvement, having
college coursework or a college degree might make your employer
more likely to consider you for higher level jobs. You may even work
your way up the chain and be placed in charge of other tailors as a
supervisor.
Check with local community colleges and technical schools since they
are more likely to have sewing, design, and fashion courses than fouryear liberal arts colleges. The classes at a community college or
technical school will also be cheaper.
Look for schools that offer a variety of courses at the beginner,
intermediate, and advanced levels.
Study matters related to clothing construction, patterns, textiles or
fabrics, finishes, detailing, and fit
Ideally, your classes should provide you with textbook information
and plenty of practice sewing exercises
Consider taking business classes.

Many tailors end up being self-employed. While it is not strictly

necessary, you might find it beneficial to take a few business and
business finance courses at the college level to prepare you for the
responsibilities and duties involved in running your own business.
Look for business classes at community colleges in your area. Pay
close attention to general business classes, business finance classes,
entrepreneurship classes, marketing classes, and any other class
dealing with small business topics.
TIPS
Remember to not overdo it. You know when you look attractive; stick
to it!
Always remember to smile. Smiling will let everyone know that you
are a fun person to be around!
Don't be afraid to try new things. If your style is different, i.e. goth,
emo, etc. don't change yourself just for the sake of getting notice
Just be yourself. They don't really like you if you are not yourself. Be
happy, and have a cheerful attitude!

 Wear the clothes that you like, and not the clothes your mom or dad
