Tips On Fashion Style Drawing

By Lena Stephenson


Now if one is going to be a fashion designer, then he has to take note of how to draw a figure because figures in this field are drawn differently as compared to contemporary art. Now for those who would want to enter into this field, here are some tips on how to do fashion style drawing. Sketching figures is entirely different and also a little bit more complex.

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.

For the very first step, it will definitely help if one would first trace the figure of an actual model from a magazine. To do this, one would first have to have a pencil, a ruler, and some tracing paper. When he has gotten all of those materials, then he has to trace the model of his choice on the tracing paper using the pencil and the ruler for measurements.

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 a puppet outline, then the next step would be to fill it in with the body parts and clothes. Now in order to do this, first use a pen to start drawing the details of the figure by using the outline as a guide to sketching. Now when one would draw in this way, he has to exaggerate the body parts a little bit by making the arms longer, the legs longer, and of course the head smaller.

Of course when he draws the clothes, he has to make sure that the shadows are exaggerated as well. Now when he is done making the pencil sketch, then he should use a black pen to trace the pencil marks and darken the details that need emphasis. Of course once he is done with that, then he should erase the pencil marks that were made.

Another thing that one has to do is to always exaggerate all proportions. Maybe give the model sassy hairstyles or some accessories that are not usually seen. Of course the poses have to be exaggerated as well like when one would look at a model from the runway.

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.
