Fashion Design Course Week 2

This week for fashion design I finished up working on how to draw different materials.  I also worked on drawing bodies.  Because when you are designing clothes you need to know where everything is to make sure it fits right and will look right.  First you draw the joint then you connect them with lines.  Lastly you draw around to make the body and label them. 

I also worked on drawing lips, eyes, and hair.  This is fun because there are so many different kinds of lip, eye, and hair styles to draw.  I enjoy doing Minnie eyes the best. That is where you draw a curved line under the long semi-circle.  I also enjoy doing cartoon lips.  For the hair you just have to make sure that it attaches to the head. And remember if you are not good at drawing these things it is ok because they are not necessity to designing clothes.  You also need to remember that tracing to learn is ok and it is not cheating.  See you next week. Bye.

Fashion Design Course Week 1

This week I am going to talk about the color wheel.  This is a device used in all forms of art.  This is used to set what colors go together very well.  Also if these colors are mixed they make a black.  If you use a color next to it you would have a very noticeable outfit. 

Also drawing different fabrics is hard.  And getting them to look like the fabric is even harder.  I will be talking about this for the next two months because I am also taking a class. I will be updating you on what I will be doing in class. 

If you have anything else you want me to talk about or any question I will be happy to answer.  I will be happy to answer any fashion questions you may have.  Please join me through the next two months on advice on fashion.  Thanks for reading and see you next week. 

Halloween Costume Tips

This Halloween I saw a lot of really cool costumes.  Just a few tip though .

If you want to make your own costume that is great but only if you are up to it and have enough time .  If you are not going to finish then buy a costume there is no shame in that . 

Another thing is that if you want to make a costume your own but don’t want to make one then you could just make or buy a few extra accessories . 

Also don’t go to big on make-up and hair the saying less is more always applies .  Just take into consideration that you are pretending to be them not playing them . 

That is all that I have for this week , but I will see you next week and I was hoping to do a question and answer section at one point so please post questions for me .

See you next week , Bye !!!
