I got a fashion sketchbook (affiliate link), which is basically a sketchbook that has very, very pale lines in the shape of an exaggerated human figure that a person can then draw clothes onto without worrying about having to draw a person first.
I do wish there was some more body diversity in this, but it's got so many pages that I'looking forward to messing around with designs anyway, even if I have no idea what I'm doing and am only sort of decent at it.
Obvious first sketch was. uh. Steampunky.
(You can see those faint figural lines in a few places, most notably the bikini area.)

Some Ace outfits. She has such a big tail its difficult to pack it in without it taking up most of the canvas. He usually leans towards masc/androgynous clothes but sometimes if he feels like it he'll wear a dress, usually if its really warm.

Unusual pattern choice for this modern high end obi, inspired by the famous Zo to Kujira-zu byôbu (Elephant and Whale folding screens) painted by mid-Edo animal lover artist Ito Jakuchu.
Those folding screens were rediscovered in 2008. There is apparently no hidden allegory behind the whale/elephant pairing beside the fact that artist once saw an elephant and a whale and (rightly) went "well they're neat".
Those screens were ordered to be displayed during Gion matsuri, and whimsical patterns were often favored for this occasion.
