This tutorial will cover the basic theories behind drawing clothing
Drawing clothing can be great fun, and there’s so much scope for design that you can really let your imagination take over. This tutorial will cover the basic theories behind drawing clothing, and provide a walk through for a simple outfit, plus show a couple of other design ideas for you to consider.
When designing clothing for your character, there are a couple of main points to consider. Firstly, and most importantly, clothes are made from fabric, which comes in many different weights and textures. These different fabrics will fall differently over curves.
As an example, think of the tough, thick denim that jeans are made from in comparison to a light weight thin cotton that you’d find a summer skirt to be made from. Naturally, if you were to make the same garment from these two different fabrics, the way they would hang when worn would differ greatly from each other.
You’d also need to consider the way the garments are made to fit. For example, heavier fabrics such as denim are usually made with a flat waist band, while lighter fabrics can be easily made with an elastic waistband, creating further folds in the material.
