Evolvinng Fashion Through a Clothing Line: Sketching

Perfect figures, elongated legs, and stunning outfits are a necessity for all types of fashion sketches whether it’s for a young, old, thick, or skinny person. Due to this, at a first glance fashion sketches can be mistaken as just a tool to spark a wave of inspiration for the designer and his use only, but in reality sketches can determine the success of one’s clothing line. The sketches do this by allowing others to see the full talent of the designer and provide a guide for those bringing the sketches to life.

   

As a matter of fact, starting a clothing line can be extremely hard without stunning sketches because investors will refuse to fund anyone who cannot sketch well. This is because, as Ms. Gipe said, they can’t truly see the vision they are funding. Unlike getting a small loan for a car, a designer of a clothing line has to get a large loan in order to start a business for manufacturing. Therefore, by having a polished sketch investors get an idea of the success to come or not to come.

         

Giving a manufacturer a design that is unclear is like a blind person playing a game of heads up, it just won’t work out. Because foreign manufacturers are cheaper, as an upcoming fashion designer many people seek that route, but unfortunately they are unable to travel back and forth to thoroughly explain their own vision. Therefore, it’s essential for the sketches sent to the manufacturer to show things from fabric patterns to fabric folds. Without being extremely meticulous with detailing while sketching, major gaps of misunderstanding can arise. This was really evident when Ms. Gipe said, “ I would have made you a pair of leggings,” during our interview because my vision included harem pants, which are  far from leggings,while she could clearly tell my intentions in the same more detailed sketch.
