"Here I have a pair of flared leg pants these are designed as jeans but the point of having flare legged pants is that is makes your legs look thinner. That's one trick to minimize bigger legs is to have them skinny along the leg and then flare out at the bottom. It'll make the overall look elongated and obviously with these kind of drawings, that's not necessary but with a drawing like this and with a fashion model it just serves to reinforce that whole point even more so and almost like a character of a person. Which is what they really are, but if you make your drawing extra skinny as a opposed to skinny drawing then it just drives home you're whole idea to whoever your viewer is, to whoever you're selling your collection to, to people who buying your collection. Normally, woman want to look thinner, if you show them this they're going to be like "oh! Those jeans, I want them, they make my legs look long, make my legs look thin". You're mind goes "ah buy it" and then cha-ching money for you the designer."
