As someone who abandoned their fashion design dreams to pursue something more secure (finance) I'm eager to get drawing again. Your videos are highly informative and valuable so consider me subbed.
+ciaranfitzgerald1 Thank you very much! Good luck getting back to drawing! Have fun!
Me too🥺 I always had a fashion design dream but I got scared it wouldn’t get me anywhere financially so I decided to become a psychiatrist :(
I'm not even into fashion(just an artist) and I am thoroughly impressed! You are a great teacher and you really know your stuff! I'm going to watch all your videos! Thank you for your generosity!
I found you for the first time and I love love LOVE your personality
I'm a hobby artist, and I found this incredibly helpful in learning how different types of fabric work for my own illustrations.Thank you!
Thank you. I never write any comments (this one is my first ever on youtube) but I really wanted to let you know that there are people out there (or over here :) ) who are grateful for people like you - that are willing to share their knowledge! Tusen tack! / Sweden
Greetings to Sweden and thank you for your kind comment!
This was the most helpful video I've seen yet. I just invested in a 200 set Prismamarker to start coloring faster (was using water colors previously) and how in-depth, above and beyond you went in this tutorial has really helped someone like me understand how to color correctly. I'm obsessed with your videos now. Thank you for taking the time out of your life to share your knowledge with us, I really appreciate it. You are amazing!
Thanks for writing! I'm envious of your marker set! Have fun, good luck, #alwaysbepracticing!
I LOVE your videos! I went to college for Fashion Design, and this is way more useful.
Now I'm in university studying textiles, and hoping to actually find a good job in the industry to do with sustainable fashion, and it's been... a struggle.
You're keeping my motivation very high and your videos are super accessible and fun to watch. Thank you so much Zoe! :)
Thank you! Good luck with your studies! I think knowledge of sustainable methods is becoming increasingly important in the industry! Have you seen the documentary "The Next Black"?
No, surprisingly I haven't but I'm looking into it right now. Thanks for the suggestion! :)
The whole thing is here on youtube. It's only 45 min but so good. I've shown it in my classes at school too.
these videos are so thorough, i mean i'm in fashion school and our teachers hardly skim the surface of all the details you share with us. thank you so much!
same!!
thanks a lot for putting such amount of dedication into your videos! all of your videos are very helpful! also thank u very much for the details explanation and the recap as well👍👍👍👍
You're welcome!
A BIG THANK YOU ZOE for doing this tutorial on sheers! Truly amazing. Thanks to the person people who requested the video😊⭐️
Just switched career paths from interior design to fashion and you videos are so helpful and wonderful! Thank you so much xo
Thank you for this video, it was so concise, especially for the round up of all important factors right at the end!
You always totally crack me up !!! You are so fun!
Thanks! I hope you're learning too!
You are one amazing lady. Thank you for explaining things so easily xxx
Congratulations on amazing work!!!
Been trying to perfect markers and u r making it possible for me
Thank You Zoe
Hi Zoe, you mention in this video that no one will wish to watch an hour-long RUclips video well lovely Zoe it really depends, because if it is you teaching the marvellous skills of The Art of sewing and so much more you share on your channel I definitely watch and longer than that, you underestimate the passion your viewers have. Thank you so much, Zoe, for all you share. Kind regards
Ciao Zoe sei una grande maestra. Ti ringrazio per regalarci la tua professionalità. Bacio
i love you as much as your videos and ifor and knowledge and talent! you are really cool to watch. great personality and vibe!
Never really been interested in fashion design, but you illustrate your content in a way that it's beneficial to all sorts of art ! this really helped me add a lot of depth and interest in a piece ive done recently and im extremely proud of it !
Thank you! That's awesome! Yes, I have had students who are (non-fashion) illustration majors too.
thank you so much. you helped more than any others I could find. because you explain it better.
You're welcome! Good luck!

Loved this tutorial! Love how funny you are!! Thank you for this amazing video Zoe you are the best
Your videos are so easy to follow! they really helped me out with the sheer fabrics and such. Whenever I try to make a sheer dress it's so complicated because I don't really know how to make it look transparent and I try to look at photos to guide myself but this video really helped me out a lot !! Thank you and please keep doing what you do ,cause you're really good at it !! :)

LOVE YOU SO MUCH
Happy to be discovered! #ilovemystudents
Thank you so much for sharing! I use your video's for my interns, but now I have given myself a week off I really enjoy getting into more drawing for fun again. Usually I make a quick sketch, that works for our studio. But long, long ago I started in fashion because I loved to draw and making dolls on my room. I brought my sketchbook to family visits and filled the sundays sitting at aunts tables just drawing princesses and brides. Kind of funny that I am getting back at that stuff right now. Although I was trained in drawing, I lost it a bit, and I am amazed that knowing so much more on making clothes with different fabrics are such a help to draw details. I love your video's, there is so much knowledge in them and they are so helpfull and funny too. I hope you liked being in Amsterdam a little while ago. Good luck with THE book.
Thank you! I'm glad you found my videos helpful! Amsterdam was indeed wonderful.
I'm in love! You are fantastic! Really enjoying your tutorials and being reminded that I am so lazy about all those details needed for a better illustrations.Thank you very much!
+george coleman Hello again! And thank you again! haha :)

oh my gosh, zoe !! i've been watching your videos since i was about 13 and im 16 now and doing clothing and textiles in highschool. as a 13 year old i remember stumbling across your fashion figure videos and ive been practicing on and off since then. they're not perfect but i'm improving !!
i'm so grateful to you because now that i do this as a subject, my teacher requested that for summer's homework, we draw 10 figures and do 10 outfits. thanks to you, i'm the only one with experience and im ahead of the class !! i've been all over your videos and pinterest these past couple of days, brushing up on stuff and learning how to render new fabrics and illustrate new textures. i can already tell my teacher is going to be impressed. i owe it to you
Good luck with your homework!

Thank you! You have a great day too!
You're welcome you too
Thank you very much. As for watching an hour long youtube video, I do it all the time watching the Art Sherpa videos. :D The longest I've watched was almost seven hours and we had a blast watching that live, so bring on the long tutorials! :D
I love Cinnamon! Time flies watching her!
Yes it does. :D She is where I heard about your channel so I came to check it out. I'm not a fashion designer or anything but as an artist I often have to paint clothing and Cinnamon said you are on point for that so here I am. :D

hi! this is the first video of yours that i am watching and i like that all your videos are really long.. it kind of makes me understand more
+Amanda Kriti Thanks! Yes, at first I was really concerned with making them short and to the point, but more and more viewers tell me they like how in depth I get with the longer videos so I'm leaning in that direction more.
thank you so so so much, for all your videos 👍😊
You're welcome!
This video is very helpful! thank you

Hey Zoe ! absolutely loving all the videos that you post, honestly have learnt a lot from your rendering and design process series. Greetings from Delhi :)
I'm glad you're learning a lot! Greetings to Delhi!
Zoe, thank you so much - love these videos! What markers are you using?
Thank you for helping me with my insomnia.
Zoe
I am an addict of your videos :-) THANK YOU!!! I wonder if you have somewhere a video on rendering BLACK SHEERS.... (I am very new at this... can't find the right marker..)
wow...amazing!!!
Thanks!
Your videos are so helpful. Thank you! Could you please do a tutorial on lace fabrics? :)
+Gabi Bezuidenhout You're in luck! Someone else requested a lace video a while ago so that tutorial should be up sometime next month. Thanks for the compliment!
OMG I LOVE YOU you inspire me to be a designer :)
Aw thank you! Good luck!
Hi Zoe, thank you for this wonderful tutorial.....very helpful as always. Can you do a tutorial specifically aimed at detailing lace? I am excited about the return of lace and other feminine patterns this fall mixed with more hard and heavy accessories........really fun to wear an to illustrate! Lace can b tricky for me to tackle in illustration......would love some tips! Thanks Zoe!
I already have a lace video. It's in my "Illustrating Specific Fabrics" playlist.
awesome, period.
+judy perez Thank you!
I love these
+Katja Lexi Dragenkvinde Thank you!
Hi!
I love your video, I love how you explained everything!
May I ask, what kind of paint are you using?
can you do a tutorial on rendering sheer prints? I am trying to do a black and white stripe chiffon. Love your videos, super helpful thank you so much!
+ALANNA HARAGUCHI Sure, but the queue is really long and so that video won't come out until February. In the meanwhile, I suggest you watch my video on how to render print fabrics and sorta merge the 2 techniques.
that's really helpful;)
really im beginers it helping me to much thank you very much
You're welcome!
Thank you for your video
I am new and I already find this helpful and I love your channel, I just wanted to ask if you could do a tutorial for denim jackets
I have a denim tutorial in my Illustrating Specific Textures playlist.
thanks for the video! I've been looking for this but instead keep finding "How to colour your shoelaces" because I put laces in the search bar 😂
hahahaha~
I also have a specific video for rendering lace in my Illustration Specific Fabrics playlist.
Hi Zoey, thank you so much for your video which helped me to get an A in a sheer design project before.
Now I have another sheer project but I have ran into a Dilemma, my skin tone and my sheer fabric are in very similar color, I've tried to choose different tones to exegerate the differences between skin color and sheer fabric color but it looked flat.
Do you have any suggestions or new methods in rendering this? Thanks a ton!
Hey Zoe, you have no idea how many times I've watched this, and learned something I missed before.
Can I ask what colour markers you're using for the skintones?
Thank you!
Hello, I'm new to your channel, and btw, i love it. Can you make a video about your collection of all your markers, your pencils, your papers and whatever you use to ilustrate? Please!
+jose niño Thank you! I've already made several videos on media. Here's the playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLwQq1-SdsNvZWU2Wr5KR0Xk9po1b-nACS
I love your videos so much because they always inspire me to try fashion illustrations. But I have one question. What markers do you use?
In general? I have a video on markers in the "Different Media" playlist. In this video? Prismacolor Warm Grey series.
hey Zoe
love your videos
other then markers, can you please use other mediums for rendering.
+Bushy mini Hey thanks! Yes, you can see I start using different media in my more recent videos. I didn't want to start painting until I posted my Intro to Paints video. ruclips.net/video/YhdA2sNw6n8/видео.html And next week I'm posting another video using different media and will continue to moving forward.
Thank u very much!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🌹
Dodiii Dodo You're welcome!
Thank you for video♥
+YONG STUDIO You're welcome! :)
i like it so much but i cant do
Hi, I love the markers that you’re using. What kind of markers do you use? Whats the brand?
[runs all over this channel with Rihanna's Where Have You Been for a soundtrack] THIS IS A GOLDMINE OF HELPFUL ADVICE
hahahahahahahahahaha~ thank you!
and in my school my friends liked my models so much
I'm super late but oh my god I love that pen? You used. Please can you share what brand it was??
hi Zoe .. thank you so much for your amazing videos .. I learned alot from them .. but I wanted to ask you something .. I always have a problem on illustrating white fabrics and black fabrics in general whether it's shinny or not .. can you tell me how to do that .. thnx in advance 😃😃
I have an Illustrating White Fabrics video and a How to Illustrate Black Fabrics with Markers video.
How would you render sheer fabric that has a opaque lining on the inside? I want to render a dress for my college portfolio but can't figure out how to get that depth that you see between the sheer fabric and the lining behind it.
Hi zoe, Please do a video on how to color white fabrics
I have one. See Illustrating Specific Fabrics playlist.
Thank you so much! I am really curious, what pencil do you use. Its as good as a black multinliner. Please let me know!
+Fatema Abizar You're welcome! In this video, the pencil I'm using when I'm doing the last bits is a Pentel Twist Erase XP with a .7mm 2B lead. I like this pencil a lot, the cushiony grip is nice when you're drawing a lot, but pretty much any good quality mechanical pencil with a soft lead like 2B or 4B will get you that look. Just be careful of smudging!
Hi Zoe, I LOVE your videos! You are such a great teacher, thank you for the time you put into it.
I have a question that is a bit hard for me to put into words but I'll give it a go anyway: you know how in your videos about drawing figures you recommend flipping the page because the brain gets used to the drawing so we can't find our mistakes? Well, I experience something similar but different when drawing "effects" like shadows, shine, sheerness etc. during the process of drawing I'm so focused on the details of it that my brain looses its ability to see the effect - instead of looking like shadows, shine, sheerness everything looks to me like spots of paint (just like I drew them) and I can't seem to switch it off.
Do you get what I'm trying to say? Does it ever happen to you? Do you have a solution how to deal with it? (it also happens to me with others' drawings, like with this video, in the thumbnail the clothes looked sheer to me but after I saw the video, it's like I discovered the magic trick and it looks to me like areas of different colors and tones...)
Hope I was clear, thank you!
Hello! I'm sorry but I've never heard of your experience before and therefore don't have any answers for you. Sounds to me that you would make a good teacher if you're able to see something and break it down to its elements.
OK, thanks :-) 😃
