Okay, so I’ve been seeing this “transparent clothing” trend pop up all over my feed, and I was like, “I gotta try this!” It looked kinda tricky, but also super cool, so I decided to give it a shot.

Getting Started
First, I needed some pictures. Obviously, you need a photo of a person. I used a few from my camera roll, just some regular shots of me and my friends. The important thing, I figured, was to have some clear definition of where the clothes are.
The Process – It’s All About Layers!
I use a photo editing app on my phone. So, I opened my first picture in the app.
- Then, I duplicated the layer. This is super important, because you’re gonna be messing with one of them.
- I selected the bottom layer (the original image).
- With this simple selection, I used the clone tool! You’re basically painting over the clothes with bits of the background. It took some time and didn’t look perfect, but it was good enough.
- Then I clicked on the top layer, used the eraser to earse the background, leaving only clothes!
Fine-Tuning
With the clothes looking transparent, I was pretty much done! But, a little bit of adjustment can help to be more realistic.
The Final Result!
Honestly, I’m pretty stoked with how it turned out! It’s not perfect, obviously. Some areas are a little blurry, and if you look really close, you can see where I messed up with the clone tool. But overall, it definitely gives that “transparent” effect I was going for.

It was a fun little experiment, and I’d definitely recommend giving it a try if you’re curious! Just be patient, and don’t expect perfection on your first attempt. It’s all about having fun and learning something new, right?
