A single sheet that pairs finished garment sketches with a nude figure study shows how closely clothing design and figure drawing were once linked. Designers needed to understand how cloth falls over a body, so they often learned anatomy and proportion through life drawing before turning to dress patterns and silhouettes. Drawings of this kind were typically working documents, used to plan cuts, test ideas and communicate with dressmakers and clients, which makes them valuable records of how garments were imagined before they were made. Look for how the figure's pose and line inform the clothing shown beside it.
