As part of several requests, I will be posting tutorials regarding fashion design starting May 1st. I will post links to these tutorials as they become available. These are designed to aid aspiring fashion designers to perfect their skills to create professional quality designs/garments as doctrined by the ready-to-wear industry, and to help fashion designer's on DA form a tighter community.
- How to Draw a Fashion Croquis I: There is a difference to the fashion figure and the regular human figure. Although I'm not a big fan of the croquis, it would be nice to set down some layouts for the actual proportions, no?
-How to Draw a Fashion Croquis II: Drapery and clothing and such. A lot of designs on DA are credible but lose their quality when the designer cannot sketch the garment on a human being correctly, and most often than not they look like cut out and paste shapes. I will go over how to draw fabric, and this will be quite a lengthly tutorial as you might have guessed...there are TONS of fabrics and weaves.
-How to Draw a Fashion Croquis III: Marker, Ink, and Colored pencil rendering. Far too often I see GREAT designs on...LINED PAPER! Or some people just dont know how to use the materials they have. This is a pretty basic tutorial and I will show how to make a design POP off the page.
-How to draw fashion flats on Adobe Illustrator: Exactly how it sounds...how to draw fashion flats on Adobe Illustrator.
-How to put together a fashion line: The one I've been asked for the most: How to create a line for production in industrial ready to wear. From concept page to flats to organization...everything the FIDM teachers make sound so hard to do but it really isnt. Also, this is a great portfolio tutorial.
Also, please check out DA's own fashion community (if it ever gets updated) at and the costume/cosplay/character design community at .
Thanks!

Any one interested in making some clothing for Liberation-Clothing. If so you would have to make a sample and allow me to see it and then be able to make it in a variety of sizes accurately with relatively quick turn around if interested send me a message under the account Liberatio-Clothing and include what it is what you feel the list price should be and then the % of that price you would want to cover your costs and allow you to make some profit too.

I have set up a new account for the t-shirt designs Liberation-Clothing there is a list of guidelines here along with people who have submitted a design.
I only posted this here since you have talked about marketing clothing and was trying to offer others a chance at getting there stuff out there i am not trying to promote or show off any of my work but trying to give others a chance at selling there designs sorry if none of you want to be given this chance i would remove this from you forum if i knew how to.

Very, very good idea dearie.
You might also want to add a tutorial about Photoshop, since it's a commonly used program and it can perform a lot of things actual fashion design programs (like Prima Vision for example) can do.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
