For the aspiring fashion artists out there, it is very important to perfect the art of sketching fashion style as it is the most basic thing that one will be learning. Now fashion style drawing is a specific way of sketching a person or a figure for the sole purpose of introducing a new piece of clothing. Of course there is a certain way to do this that all beginners have to learn.

Now one very important thing to take note about drawing these specific types of figures is that everything about them is exaggerated. For one, the shadows of the clothes as well as the folds are highly exaggerated in order for the clothes to be more highlight. Also, the body parts and the poses of the models are also very exaggerated too.

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.

Now from the silhouette that has been traced from the magazine, one should make a puppet outline. Now what most artists would do before they draw people is that they would first make an outline in the form of a standing wooden puppet. This is done that they will have a guide wherein they can draw the details of the figure.

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 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.

Now notice that in fashion sketches, artists would add a lot of accessories and use a lot of colors. Notice that the artists would also give their figures some trendy or unusual hairstyles. This is to add style and a little bit of sass to the sketch.

Basically, these are some of the steps that beginners can follow. Now if one is already quite good, then he does not need to trace the outline of a model from a magazine anymore as he can just create his own original outline with his own pose. He may also experiment with some original styles that he comes up with.
