Question
How can I draw all those things without the body?
Community Answer
Draw the figure (not the head unless you're doing a hat) along with whatever clothing or accessories you want to include, then erase the lines you drew for the figure. This allows you to draw clothing in specific poses if desired.

Question
How do I draw a t-shirt
Community Answer
Draw a square/rectangle (if you choose a rectangle, make it a vertical one). Next, add sleeves. If you need help drawing the sleeves, just add a rectangle on each side of the figure.

Article SummaryX
To draw casual clothing, start by drawing the outline of a simplified character with a circle on its head for a cap. Then, join the left and right edges of the circle with a straight line, and extend the line into a slanted box for the cap’s sun shade. Next, draw a straight line across the character’s waist, along with a triangle in the collar region for a v-neck shirt and curved strokes near the elbows for the folded sleeves. After that, make straight lines down from the waist line, then join them at the bottom to make pant legs to complete the outfit. For tips on how to draw business casual clothing or a classic suit, keep reading!
