Here’s a fabric mockup that works well for a surface design, a textile pattern and similar projects.
Useful for textile designers as much as for surface pattern designers. Place the design as a flat PNG with a transparent background, then let the fabric displacement do the folds.
Print-on-demand shops use images like this for listings, so the realism of the folds matters more than people think. Add a hoodie or sweatshirt shot next to it and you have a basic collection page.
Use it for
- A surface design
- A textile pattern
- A printed logo

Fabric Mockup: editable parts
Everything below is on its own layer:
- Print design, placed through the smart object
- Fabric colour
- Background colour
Editing the Fabric Mockup, step by step
- Save your print as a PNG with a transparent background.
- In the Layers panel, find the layer with the small smart object icon and double-click it.
- Place your design, hide the sample artwork, save, and go back to the main file.
- Change the fabric colour with the colour fill layer.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
Light prints on light fabric vanish; try the garment colour layer first before you change your artwork.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
Mockups Design sets the licence, and it can differ from file to file. Many free files allow personal and commercial use, but some are personal-only or ask for credit. Read the terms on the download page before a paid project.
How do I put my artwork on the fabric?
Find the smart object layer (it has a small icon on its thumbnail), double-click it, place your design, then save and close that tab.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Does the print follow the fabric folds?
Better apparel mockups use a displacement map or warp so the print follows the wrinkles. Check the preview: if the folds show through the logo, it does.
