Hello, I’m trying to figure out how to insert a photo of fabric over a photo of a drape, make the adjustments to move the fabric so it looks realistic, but also be able to swap out the original fabric swatch photo so I can see what the drape would be like in other fabrics.

Can that be done or is that a Photoshop thing? They call them Place Holders from what I’m learning online. The most important thing is to be able to easily pop in a new fabric and see it finished without having to alter it.

I'm including this photo to give you an idea of what I mean..this is shirt, but you get the idea. Image

Many thanks!

I’m no expert but couldn’t you mask the “shirt part” of the model (making it transparent) then place it over backgrounds of different fabric options?

Nah - I think there´s more to it to make it look decent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG0-V95qmPg
