A Guide On How To Do Fashion Style Drawing

By Lena Stephenson


Being a fashion designer is actually a very high paying job these days because the industry is booming. Of course if one would want to go into this field, then the least that he needs to know would be how to make a fashion style drawing because this is what he would be doing most of the time. Of course this type of sketching is very different from normal sketching and will take some steps.

Of course when one would draw in this way, he has to know that all the figures are exaggerated one way or another. One of the ways that they are exaggerated would be that the clothes are all folded and would have a lot of shadows so that the clothes will look nice. Now the poses and also the body parts of the models are also very exaggerated.

Now the very first step to making a figure would be to get an old magazine and use some tracing paper to trace the silhouette of a picture of a model there. This is something that most beginners would do because most of them would have a hard time coming up with an outline from scratch. So get a pencil, a bunch of tracing paper, and a ruler in order to do this.

After that, one must make a puppet figure out of the model that he has traced. Basically, he will do this by creating an outline in the shape of a wooden puppet with squares, rectangles, and circles. This is done so that one will have a guideline that he can stick to later on when he would start drawing the clothes and the models.

Now after the creation of the puppet outline, then he can start drawing the details of his figure. First, he should start working on the face, the arms, and all the other body parts using a pencil. Now it is expected that the figure will have exaggerated body parts which means that the figure should have a rather small head, a long torso, a long pair of arms, and a long pair of legs.

Of course with the aid of the outline, he can start drawing the clothes and adding some exaggerated folds. Once one has already finished that, then he has to trace the pencil sketch using a black inked pen in order to shade all of the important details. Once he has done this, then he has to make sure that the pencil marks are also erased.

Now one has to also make sure that he exaggerates some of the other things as well. Usually, drawn figures would have really unusual hairstyles or accessories. They would also have some strange poses that look somewhat unrealistic.

So for all the aspiring designers out there, do take note of all these very important tips. Now one thing to take note of is that creativity is extremely important in this field. He has to create his own styles and his own concept using his pencil and some paper.
