What Is the best way to cut out the shape for a tank top? I use the pen tool for most clothing shapes but I'm not strong at using It and I struggle with tank tops mostly. If you have any tips and tricks you can pass my way with using the pen tool and/or shaping clothing please please share.

Thanks In advance!

The pen tool is probably the easiest and most versatile tool in the PS toolbox. Set anchor points around a shape with the pen tool. Then change to the Convert Point tool, click on any anchor point and drag the handles to shape the path in its vicinty to whatever pleasing curve you like. When you've finished with all the points, right click inside the path and select Make Selection. Then you can fill the area or clear it, depending on excatly what you are doing with the new shape. That's it. Easy. :D
