If your are interested in designing fashion you will need to know some basic skills - one of the most important is being able to sketch your idea. In this post, I will give you tips on drawing and designing clothes and give you a few examples to get you started.
How to put your fashion idea onto paper:
1. First, close your eyes and imagine the outfit in your mind. It helps to have a clear idea of what you are trying to draw.
2. Get your sketchbook and a simple HB or 2B lead pencil.
3. Slowly sketch your design onto the paper going over lines to make them perfect. It always helps to draw your design onto a model. You don't have to draw faces, but it can look nice.
4. Once you've roughly drawn your design, go over the lines if necessary.
5. Optional: Now is the time to colour your design in. I often don't do this but have the idea in my mind. It is totally up to you. A coloured-in fashion can be seen clearly, but can also sometimes get a bit messy.
Here's an example of a design that I drew myself:
I drew bags, tops, and beachy clothes on the model. Its all quite simple when you get the hang of it. I'm not pro, but I have put up some amazing professional designs for you to get inspired:


Until very very soon,
