How to illustrate fabrics in fashion sketch: SHEER FABRICS and CHIFFON Tutorial

[spillkisseswithlove1]

Do you really need to learn how to draw a mannequin?

[elidada84]

@spillkisseswithlove1 Not as realistic and elaborated as you see it in my drawings, but you surely must have a basic knowledge of human body and its proportions

[lilleylio]

wow.... insipire

[lovekisser5]

[MsFashionish]

[OnepieceexNamichwan]

the firstt is sooo AWSOOMME ...!!! ... the second one .. is okay too .. but it looked really cool while you were painting them .. i luv drawing fashion .. i do it almost everyday .. even though im a still beginner , i have no idea how to paint them to look artistic and watching this it seems easier now... i kinda get it now i think .. and are W&N paints good for painting illustrations ??

[ganda100filipina]

uhm, i also draw fashion clothes with human body (aw usual) :)).. and i would like it if u would give me some suggestions.. :]

[arafattu]

[ZarasBones1]

[MonikaTrew]

You're using special paper for watercolor or simple paper for printing?

[leanzahmiriamakendel]

[MsDidiLarsen]

[jamieteddybear51]

what kind of pens where you using? i want to buy some for my friend and i'm not sure which ones.

[Eyirhab]

[michelbrandy]

this we can only do for a portfolio, because you see, i am a fashion designer working in the middle east for 7 years,.and clients appear on the spot,you can only make a caricature as fast as u can,..i must say your art is awesome...very good for presentation..keep it up :)

[lundii07]

[elidada84]

@TheRumaizah Not this one. My tutorial on Alex McQueen's dress is pastel pencils on tracing paper and my tut on Satin is ink on tracing paper

[CreativePaintBrush]

@elidada84

i hate how people keep commenting on what paint you use and stuff like that, why can't they comment on praising you for your god gifted talents! what you do is beautiful and i hope to paint like you someday! you're truly god gifted! by the way im not saying they shouldn't ask you about those things but atleast say its amazing!

[rav777888999]

[smallchick3048]

your such a great designer

[TheFashiondrawings]

sorry I can steal what they ask for pencils and pens, and where do you buy that

[cleorachel1]

I almost feel asleep cuz of this music beautiful music but sleepy anyway really cool sketch

[fashionbutterfly100]

hello what watercolours do you use , please can you recommend?

[elidada84]

@fashionbutterfly100 My watercolors are by Winsor & Newton, not a pro grade watercolor set, but the brand is of good quality.W&N's top quality watercolor paints are branded simply "Artist's Water Colour" while their student's brand is branded "Cotman". Another good brand are Schmincke, Daler Rowney and M. Graham. No matter which brand you choose, if you're very serious about your watercolor,I recommend to buy watercolor paints in tubes as you have more control over the intensity of the color

[fashionbutterfly100]

@elidada84 great thank you, i found a good price on amazon : )

[chinaparado]

I find color rendering the hardest in fashion design. But with your help, I'm beginning to explore coloring. Anywho, i was wondering how do you keep your paper from getting soggy? :)) HAHA. Thanks so much!! You are awesome btw, :)

[kamid99]

all my life I've wanted to do fashion designing. You're my inspiration!!

[zacareen]

hey hun :) could you please show us how u draw the bodies ?please

[Jerbethaqui]

I know I am late at seeing your drawing. However, I love it where can it get your tutorial to get started in trying my hand at drawing.

[pameluhv]

I so love fashion and art stuffs.. but there are things in life that I must consider first - because I need to. Im taking up BSEd major in Biological Science now.. and its painful to ignore my passion.

[kingofcouture5]

Your sketches are very good.I taught myself to sketch.I started when i was four,and now i can sketch any fabric and any shape of dress

[phe423]

[leonardocastilho46]

awesome work.. i'm automotive designer, but love your technique

[Inguteliute]

You are my inspiration. All my life I wanted to draw fashion sketches but never did becasue I thought it's impossible to do that without special education. But when I saw your tutorials I started to draw I now I know that everything is possible. I'm so grateful for you:)))

[elidada84]

@Inguteliute That's so great! Comments like this one are making my day ! :)))

[latecia1]

@Inguteliute -yea exactly..i though there is essencial to get an education in that but i decided for design study so i am absolutely reliant to Elidada now :-) i got some job offers finally but no confidence go for it now as i think i need to practise that dreses,so i just do a small concepts.

could i have a question Elidada? if i make an sketch (for designer who s not able to draw) what is the rate per 1sketch (beck/front view on a3)and do yu know about any website with that kind of source?

[EaterOfCakes]

Thank you! I need this so badly.

[iiecha]

What type of paper are you using?

[elidada84]

@iiecha 80gsm (24lb) common print paper

[Tatijana88]

You are very creative! Its Beautiful :)

[purpletigerluver5678]

can you put what mediums you are using to draw your drawings (products)?? plz and thank you

[elidada84]

@purpletigerluver5678 Here I used watercolors by WInsor & Newton, black fineliner for the first design and marker pens by Pelikan

[Brunetteballerina9]

what music is in your video because it doesnt sound like lady gagas bad romance, well obviously, but what song is it?

[elidada84]

@Brunetteballerina9 It was bad romance once, but I had to change it. Now it's something I found in AudioSwap

[KASHEIMA]

ur painting skills are amazing!!!!!

[PerezQuarez]

omg love your designs i hope you draw other ones like the titanic like the red one anyway love them p.s can u do a tutorial on the kamino dress from the Titanic?

[elidada84]

@PerezQuarez Sorry for the delayed answer. Of course I will do a tutorial on the kimono and the other dress, but you must to help me :) I don't know which red dress you mean, cause there were two red dresses Rose wore in Titanic. I suppose you want to see the red "dinner dress", or you meant the one red "jumping dress", Rose wore, when she was about to jump off the ship at the beginning of the movie.

[PerezQuarez]

omg love your designs i hope you draw other ones like the titanic like the red one anyway love them

[PerezQuarez]

omg i love titanic and these dresses are from it i have to learn how to draw them . wait are they from the titani anyway great designer

[erinplaice]

amazing!! i would freaking loveeeeeee to see you draw the titaanic dress the 5:06!!

LOVE love love!

your extremely talented-its art!

[elidada84]

@erinplaice If you wish I could do a tutorial on it. You actually mean the pinkish chiffon dress and not the kimono, right? Just to be sure, because both are from titanic.

[erinplaice]

@elidada84 yes, the pinkish chiffon dress--also in that possition--you like really captured the movement! Its amazing :D

[elidada84]

@erinplaice Ok, then. I shall make a tutorial on it.

[erinplaice]

@elidada84 YAY!! :D

[lulurocks9711]

[ObliquePerfection92]

This is rather useful to anyone who wants to draw fabrics, really. Very useful with still life. Thank-you.

[dinamicawear]

Thankyou for share your tips! :) Great job!

[fdacastillo]

[LenkeH]

ur amaxing! this looks really great! keep up the awesome wrk! :)

[darkjangmi]

@elidada84  thank you

[darkjangmi]

what kind of watercolor paints are you using ?

[elidada84]

@darkjangmi Winsor & Newton

[murphyslaw631]

@darkjangmi - i was thinking the same thing i love it though!1

[zackery209]

wat type of paint and paper do we have to use.... how can i make the face pop out without making it look to clowny.

[elidada84]

@zackery209 I used here water colors but you can take any kind of wet medium to draw this. The paper should be a bit thicker, otherwise it will get too wet and deform. On the face you can accentuate few features not all at once. You could make big red lips but spare on shadows around the nose OR high, red cheeks and big eyes but nude lips...

[anaisluvschargers]

tht song sounds like 'bad romance' from gaga (=

love ur drawingss

[Msshaylittle]

do you add water or anything?

[elidada84]

@Msshaylittle Yes. If you use water colors it's normal to add water, but you can also water down inks as well. I would only recommend to take some of the ink and put it in a separate jar or bin of a palette and then add the water into it to make it transparent and lighter. Doing this, you'll prevent your original ink from getting too thin fluid by adding to much water in it.

[Minajahn]

aaaaaa, her face looks so sweeeet!

^--^

keep it up

[ARIAS21229]

amazing and is that...LADY GAGA BAD ROMACE!?

[bieberfever818]

[kmap3002]

[TiffanyChoable]

you're reallyyy good

[gjab19]

looks like a haute couture dior dress

[Msshaylittle]

what is wash??? plzz answer!

[elidada84]

@Msshaylittle Drawing in WASH technique means to use any fluid medium like water colors, india ink, or any kind of inks, thinned pigments or acrylics, etc. and applying them with a brush.

[sketchhpads08]
