What do you do when you have lots of ideas for dresses but don't know how get them down on paper? You take a fashion sketching class! I signed up for a 3-day class at Sew Fresh Studio in Niwot.
Day one - we learn basic fashion model sketching. It's similar to anatomy sketching but with exadurated long legs. We learned how to add action to our figures to make them look more realistic.

Day two - garment sketching on our models. We learned to show the various features of our dresses and how to use color and shading to add movement. We were told to wear what we wanted to sketch, so I wore my 1950's polk-a-dot dress.
Day three - technical sketching for fashion design. This is a very clean, simple sketch showing the stitching and other various details of your dress for a professional dress maker to follow.
