u are seriously such a good teacher. im a beginner and have been spending hours watching diff youtubers.. i always end up back on your page. you just make it so understandable.. i dont ever comment but i jus had to say thankyou. all your vids are exactly what ive needed!!
You speak my language... I love puns too 🙌 as someone who is trying to teach myself how to sew and draw fashion sketches, you make it easy peasy to learn. I wanted to go to school for fashion design but there aren't any schools in Alberta to take for it, so I'm going the self teaching route. It really helps when the person your trying to learn from is really good at making things make sense. Not everyone has that ability. I appreciate you 🙏
I know this was more about drawing the clothing over a body but this legit helped me with drawing the croquis. This is the first time ever I've been able to draw a croquis/human figure from my imagination that isn't just standing straight. The 'ellipses' way of thinking about it was a game changer. Super simple and effective. It's like I've always overthought it in the past. Thank you!
This is why this is always the first step I show people when teaching how to draw clothes--the ellipses help people understand the body's movement better as well as figuring out how clothes wrap around limbs. Glad you found this helpful!
It seems so logical and I know I knew this was the case, but you learn/understand it so much better when someone is actually showing you how it works! Thank you :)
Please don’t ever stop teaching on TH-cam! You are amazing and easy to understand. I’m new to designing clothes but I’ve always had style and your videos are helping me create my athleisure line! 2020 Launch!
I am so so glad to discover your channel, today is my first fashion illustration class in the Uni. But I really feel like to just watch your tutorial instead of going to the class. You are the best.
You’re an amazing teacher, and we’re such a lucky to learn from someone who loves what they do,I can’t thank enough to you because I learn a lot of things thanks to you 🙏🏼💜
You're a genius Zoe thank you so much for this. I feel like I snuck in to sit in the back row of an incredible art class and got to sneak out before being noticed. And packed as many learnings into my head as possible, completely inspired to practice. This was a delight.
Myself kirthika i would like to thank you from the bottom my heart for such wonderful tutorials, i feel that if i get a chance to meet someone i like, it would be you..i am 35 years and thought that i can never learn illustrations but after i started following your videos i got to know how professionally you deal with the subject..thanks a lot zoe.
this was so much information! !! So MUCH NEEDED information! !! you always seem to knock it outta the park for me! I love that your way of teaching gets through when so many others never have!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! !!!!
Ms. Zoe..welcome back! What a great gift today on my birthday to learn in detail how the lines curve in a fashion croquis!!! Amazing, can't wait to see the rest of this videos!! That ink is very stubborn! I am pretty sure it was worth it!
Thank you very much Zoe for your generosity for sharing your knowledge. I'm learning so so much from your videos and I enjoy your so energising and funny personality! Thank you
I love your channel. I think you are one of the elite tuber that get straight to the point without needless chatter and I applaud that. Thank you for the detailed teachings I take everything to heart. And I'm a loyal fan.
This is amazing!! I want to do fashion and I have a ton of stuggle drawing clothes because perspectives always throw me off. This really helped me! Thanks
I live in Iran and universities and schools do not teach properly, to the extent that one hour of watching your video was equal to 2 years of my going to college.
paper towel role!?! --- Brilliant!!! (i'm sure you knew that!) Hope that you are always healthy and living a good life! please continue to post awesome/educational videos like this! Thanks a million!!!!
I have a short attention span, but I promise your videos are not boring. I don't know if it's because I'm interested in improving my fashion drawing and design skills or what. But I love your videos and your personality!
Thank you so much for your videos! It's always a struggle to find videos that are both knowledgable and super in-depth on how to understand clothing. You can find so many tutorials on how to draw bodies, which is great, but I dont want to draw naked figures in my work 😅 It's extremely annoying when I can draw accurate anatomy but cardboard clothing ughh it just looks WRONG lol 😅😅 You seriously saved my life! Thank you again 🤗
You are an excellent teacher! I have recently completed my course in Fashion Illustration but now I'm glued to your tutorials as my teacher didn't cover the topics in detail! So A BIG THANK YOU! I would definitely love to visit you and meet you in person as I have become your fan! I am writing to u all the way from UAE.
WOW Zoe, this is the one thing I'm really struggling with when it comes to my sketches and illustrations. Thank you soooo much for such an easy explanation!!
Your videos are really help full especially the one on the design process and developing croquis.It make it really easy to draw a lot simpler than every other resource i've found anywhere. You must be a really good teacher not mention you've a very interesting and vibrant personality( you're very funny too. Thanks a lot Zoe
Hi Zoe, I love you classes and you have no idea how helpful you are. Be blessed 💕 I also want to share this with you because I am happy to find this mechanical pencil with a very very long and eraser that lasts for a very long time.
This is clear thanks zoe but cant wait for the rest of the design process and information about how to present a portfolio tanks so muchhugs from africa
Dear Zoe. Thank you very much for your warning but your video was not boring at all. Any of your videos is boring and I am learning so much from you... I am 58 years old and fashion design always was a dream for me. I have to have an early retirement for health reason and this is my time now. I want sew for my daughter my grandchildren my son-in-law and myself only but I want look like a "pro" just for own fun and as you know I must do my design before any thing... I never was able to made it. I never new what you are teaching and I have to tell you that it is very hard for me to concentred in any thing because of my ADHD and you are so interesting to me that I spend hours on my laptop just looking at each and every of your videos. Again thank you so much for your love of teaching and for your time. I love it. Keep doing such a good job (please don't mind my english and my spelling I have a very strong french accent).
Wow, Francoise, thank you for sharing your story. I'm so happy I'm able to help you even a little. You're welcome and good luck with your new projects!
Awesome Video Zoe. I love the way you teach - so clear and so methodological. Great learning through you. Thank you so much. Awaiting your videos is exciting. Because I know something awesome is coming. :)
You have literally saved my life from Fashion Illustration. My professor is new and its his first semester teaching, and i am not learning anything. He has a lot of experience drawing, but i am not able to learn! :((
Zoe you are an incredible teacher. You have provided a wealth of knowledge for free and I am thankful for your classes! PS you have every right to be egotistical ;)
You are such a blessing for fashion students as well as professionals who dint get this type of lectures...got only half knowledge from the teachers who themselves dint have the knowledge....its been six years of graduating from a fashion school but dint even know these basic details because we were never told about it and we dint have internet availability unlike now so couldnt gain the knowledge ....following all your playlists and getting better n better... Couldnt thank you more...Thankyou so much Zoe Ma'am @zoehong
+Zoe Hong plsss do a video on gathers nd pleats how to paint them... i jus dont get hw to do thm. i always end spoiling my work cos the shading is wrong
You know what would be awesome? You selling prints of the fashion figures you forshortened. I want to use them as lose reference for art! That's how helpful your information is. I use it across artistic disciplines. :)
The paper towel dowel was a serious aha! moment for me. Makes the whole thing more practical, and understandable. Thank you!
u are seriously such a good teacher. im a beginner and have been spending hours watching diff youtubers.. i always end up back on your page. you just make it so understandable.. i dont ever comment but i jus had to say thankyou. all your vids are exactly what ive needed!!
Thank you! I'm glad you find my videos helpful!
I agree with this❤❤
I will legit pay whatever amount of money for private tutoring. She's is amazing! My favorite TH-cam teacher!
Thanks!
True story!
You speak my language... I love puns too 🙌 as someone who is trying to teach myself how to sew and draw fashion sketches, you make it easy peasy to learn.

It really helps when the person your trying to learn from is really good at making things make sense. Not everyone has that ability. I appreciate you 🙏
The foreshortening tip with the cardboard dowel thing is so excellent. I've never heard that before and I have watched a *lot* of drawing videos.
Thanks! Hope it helps you!
I know this was more about drawing the clothing over a body but this legit helped me with drawing the croquis. This is the first time ever I've been able to draw a croquis/human figure from my imagination that isn't just standing straight. The 'ellipses' way of thinking about it was a game changer.

It seems so logical and I know I knew this was the case, but you learn/understand it so much better when someone is actually showing you how it works! Thank you :)
I have come across many videos of wrapping clothes..since this one makes me understand clear enuf..
ok can you just set my whole life straight in this exact tone and language. thank you. that is all.
wow its amazing that this tutorial is free
Please don’t ever stop teaching on TH-cam! You are amazing and easy to understand. I’m new to designing clothes but I’ve always had style and your videos are helping me create my athleisure line! 2020 Launch!
I love how you always show what not to do as well as how to do it properly. This is perfect,so simple but incredibly helpful! Thank you!
You're welcome! Happy to help!

Hey Zoe! I'd just like to say how much your videos have helped me with figure drawing and design. Thankyou! I'm really glad I found your channel!

Not putting my teachers down whatsoever but I learned more in this video than I did in the complete first year of my fashion illustration classes
this was so much information! !! So MUCH NEEDED information! !! you always seem to knock it outta the park for me! I love that your way of teaching gets through when so many others never have!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! !!!!
Thank you! Yeah, teaching in a classroom and private tutoring for years has helped me figure out what works and what doesn't.
"Culottes. Are we doing that again? I like the word, I just don't like looking at them." - bwuahahaaa oh my god I thought I was the only one!!!
hahahahaha :D
Colouttes have never been a good idea. As a petite woman, I have no idea why I ever paid money to look that silly.
😄😄😄😄😄 hahahaha😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
I can't believe this teaching is free of cost ...😃😃😃 thank you so much Zoe maam
