20 Ways to Draw a Dress and 44 Other Fabulous Fashions and Accessories

by Julia Kuo Author

This book is a guide to drawing 900 fashion items, including dresses, accessories, and more. It’s part of the Quarry Books’ 20 Ways series, designed to provide artists, designers, and doodlers with a fun and sophisticated collection of illustrating techniques.

Each spread features 20 inspiring illustrated examples of 45 themes, such as black dresses, summer hats, stylish shoes, and faux fur coats. The blank space at the bottom of each spread is perfect for you to apply your own 20 Ways to Draw a Dress technique.

Unlike traditional step-by-step technique books, this book presents stylized dresses that are simplified, modernized, and reduced to their basic elements. By showing how simple abstract shapes and forms can be combined to create any item you want to draw, it offers a perspective on sketching, doodling, and designing.
