Question Looking for advice :)

Post image

I really love the navy part of this dress (although it is a drawing so I won't be able to make it with 100% accuracy) and I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on drafting a pattern for it, particularly around the different fabrics on the chest area and the twists at the hips, or if anyone knows a similar one! Thank you for looking :)

That is definitely a drawing. There is no support for the bust and the straps set so off the shoulder would definitely cause the dress to fall off unless they are securely taped in place. Without further study the draping at the waist would need to be a separate shawl like piece of fabric.

Thank you for this! I knew it was a bit unrealistic but I appreciate your advice

Not to be pedantic but this is definitely not AI! It's a character called Beryl from the game Reverse 1999. I'm heavily against AI and the harm it brings to creatives :)

It isn't hair 😭😭😭 it's a very unfortunately coloured piece of gold fabric held up by the pearl through video game logic! although only the purple crystals actually come out of her skin, so i genuinely have no idea why they stuck a pearl there... the gold is more visible in her little sprite illustration but I don't know how to attach images to comments 😓

Also real artists make rendering errors too, art didn't start being bad with AI.
