Source of Inspiration

I did sketch clothes by hand at one time but then I stopped. I didn't have a urge to continue to draw anymore but I might start back up just for fun. But when i did draw I felt like my inspiration came from everything that I seen around me including my own imagination. When I drew I thought about everything from shapes to nature. I would think about unordinary shapes and angle them differently then incorporate it into whatever type of garment I drew. Sometimes I would think of ocean water and create a dress that I imagine would flow like waves in the ocean. Some of my inspiration also came from clothes that I've seen on celebrities or desginer clothes that I would see on the internet or in magazines. I would think about what caught my eye and mesh it all together into one garment that I thought would visually show the inspiration but at the same time not be a duplicate of what has already been done.


My inspiration basically comes from everthing and not one specific thing and I feel like that would create a good sketch of a garment. I haven't sketched a garment in about two years but taking this class is pushing me to start sketching again.
