How To Draw Wrinkles In Clothing

Drawing wrinkles in clothes may seem like an intimidating art form. But trust us—it doesn’t take a master artist to rock this creative look. In fact, it’s easier than you think. With just a few tips and tricks, you can make wrinkle-infused clothing a signature part of your wardrobe. Ready to learn? Let’s get started.

Create Your Wrinkle

First things first: You’ll want to identify where the wrinkle should be. The great thing? You make the rules. Visualize where you’d like the wrinkle to be—top? side? back?—and go for it. Keep in mind that wrinkles create movement and make garments appear more alive, which is a great way to add personality to your outfit. Next step? Layer up.

Layer It Up

Layers are key when it comes to creating the perfect wrinkle. Start by adding a few items of clothing that you’d usual wear, then top it off with a few wrinkles-friendly garments. It could be anything from an oversized shirt, an oversized cardigan or a vest. A knotted shirt is also a great option! Make sure you get creative and have fun with different layers and textures.

Relax, Unwind and Wrinkle

To create the perfect wrinkle, you’ll want to make sure your clothes are relaxed but not overly baggy. This means you still want tight enough clothes that you can keep up with your busy life. Once you find the balance between relaxed and too-baggy, that’s when the fun begins.

Magnify—but Play It Safe

Some people may want to go bold and exaggerate their wrinkles. But remember, sometimes less is always more. If you feel overwhelmed and want to try out bolder wrinkles, why not go for smaller exaggerations.
This can be achieved by wearing stiff and rough fabrics that exaggerate any wrinkles. But at the same time, make sure it’s still “comfortable” and breathable because too many wrinkles can be suffocating. In fact, start small, play it safe, and use your imagination to create the perfect wrinkle.

Master the Art of Wrinkly Dressing

Now that you have mastered the art of wrinkle dressing, let your creative juices flow and start experimenting. Ultimately, the best way to find out what works for you is by playing around with different fabrics, textures and layers until you find your signature style.
Play around with different combinations and enjoy the process. Who knew wrinkles could be so much fun, right?

A Little Wrinkle Goes A Long Way

You don’t have to go big to make a statement. Sometimes, all you need is a hint of wrinkle to transform your piece of clothing. Whether it’s a detail as small as a rouched sleeve, a cuffed pant or a simple diagonally placed tuck—a couple of well-placed wrinkles can go a long way.

Mix it Up

Mixing up different wrinkles and fabrics will give your outfit an unexpected edge. Dye your clothes in contrasting colours to create an eye-catching look, or experiment with lighter fabrics for a more subtle approach. Why not even try layering up different fabrics to make it look wilder?
Whatever you decide, make sure you stay true to yourself and just have fun with it.
