Folds


  
when an artist draws them well you don't even notice them; you only notice when they're drawn poorly.

SQUASH AND STRETCH
one side of the cloth always has tension and the other side will be the slack or relaxed side, or you can think of it as one side being the "squash" side, and the other being the "stretch" side.
 Remember; if you are doing a character that is more cartoony, then you'll want to keep the folds as simple as possible. Economy of line in animation is critical since a character must be drawn over and over again. Every fold must precisely describe what is beneath it and the effects that body type or action are having on the clothing. More illustrative characters, like those in some children's books, graphic novels or game design, can have more detailed folds as a part of their design.
when drawing clothing remember that you are drawing 3 dimensionaly, not the clothing on a flat surface
