There is no THE RIGHT WAY nor THE ONLY WAY to draw a fashion figure. Every artist has his/her own particular style so don’t be intimidated by the variety of tutorials and different techniques. All you need is to learn the basics and choose the technique that works for you.

It’s important to first understand the human body, how it moves, and how it is shaped so you can create realistic looking sketches.

Fashion figure drawing for beginners

There is a big difference between real human body proportions and fashion illustration proportions. If you measure a figure in heads, an average female figure will be 8 heads tall (example below). In fashion illustration we change the proportions to make the figure look taller and it can become 8-10 heads. Every illustrator adds their own style. Some artists exaggerate proportions to make their sketches stand up and be recognizable.

Here is a simple formula that I use to draw a fashion illustration

Tools:

Paper, Pencil, Sharpener, Eraser, Colored pencils or markers

Step 1

Draw 9 inch vertical line -so it’s easy to divide it into 9 parts – it will be the balance line

Step 2:

Divide the line into 9 equal parts (each part will be the size of the head)

At the beginning you can use a ruler but after some practice you will feel pretty confident and will draw without itStep 3

Drawing

At the top (part1) draw a head (egg/oval shape)

Step 4

Now lets find the lines for the neck, bust, waist, hips, crotch, knees and ankles.

1 1/3 heads -the neck and shoulder line

2 1/4 heads -bust line

3 heads – waist and elbow line

4 heads- hips line

4 1/4 -crotch line

6 heads-knees

8 heads -ankles

Step 5

Shoulders will be about 1 1/2 -2 heads wide

The waist is 1 head wide

Hips -1 1/4 heads wide

Draw the figure, don’t pay attention to rough lines, when the proportions are correct, make the lines smooth.

Step 6

Fashion

Draw the legs and leave the last part for the feet.

The thighs (from hips to knee) and the calves (from knee to ankle) are the same length

Step 7

Draw the arms-elbows are at the waist line (3 heads)

Hand starts at the crotch area and ends a little above the mark 5

Blocking the figures back

  • With a little space draw a vertical line form up to drown. Divide it into 8.5 equal sections.
  • Draw the head, on the first section.
    The head length is the figure’s body length measurement unit and head width is your figures body width measurement unit. Don’t forget just like frontal pose, the head width should be exactly 2/3 of head length. So try to draw it flawless.
  • Draw the shoulder-line, waist-line, and hip-line respecrively at the places 1.5, 3 and 4 in width 1, 1.25 and 2 head width.
  • Draw basic shape of figures hands and feet exactly same as front pose.

The foot shape form back pose can be seen shorter than the frontal pose. So that, divide the lase 1/2 section into three equal sections. In the up 2/3, draw the foot shape into a small trapezoid.

How to draw Figures Back Muscles

  • From the back view, the neck starts slightly upper.
    To determine the exact location of starting, divide the head length into three equal sections. The middle of down 1/3 is the starting point of the neck from the back view.
  • Draw the necklines at a distance of 1/2 head width, on both sides of the centerline.
  • Divide the distance between chin and bust into three equal sections just like the front view. Extend the necklines to the first 1/3.
  • The shoulder slope in the back is slightly more convex than the front. Therefore draw the shoulder 1mm fatter.
  • Indicate the spine a little lower than the shoulder-line to the waist-line.
    You will need these markings, later in coloring fashion figure.
