"This right here we have a string bikini silhouette, very standard, pretty much you're going to see them everywhere you go, there's not much design about them. But it is a standard necessity when you start drawing and designing, you need a jump off point. This everybody knows what this is, this isn't hard to fathom. I mean I teach you how to draw this, that way you can add your own flair onto it afterwards or you can, everyone needs the basics, when you're designing collections think about that too. Don't try to go out there as you possibly can all the time, because then it's going to look too contrived. This is a pair of string bikini panties and there is a need for those in collections. You can create what fills that need. You don't have to be ooh la la, avant-garde out there. So when you're drawing your bikini panty, make sure that the string part is a string, going down to the crotch and then figure how, what size you want the front part, the triangle part to be, come across. Then draw your bow, if you choose to use a bow, if not leave it plain."
