Hand-Drawn Fashion Sketch Collage

Transform the people in the reference photo into a stylish {argument name="illustration style" default="hand-drawn fashion illustration"} while keeping their facial features, poses, expressions, hairstyles, clothing, body proportions, and overall composition recognizable. Use a mixed-media aesthetic combining a realistic photographic background with detailed pencil-and-colored-pencil sketching on the people. Add visible hand-drawn cross-hatching, rough pencil strokes, subtle ink outlines, textured shading, and slightly imperfect sketch details. Keep the clothing highly detailed with realistic fabric folds and denim texture.

Surround each illustrated person with a thick irregular white sticker/paper-cutout border, as if they were individually cut out by hand. Add small pieces of semi-transparent white masking tape around the edges of some figures, creating a scrapbook/editorial collage effect. The background should remain realistic, softly lit, natural, and slightly blurred, creating a strong contrast between the photographic environment and illustrated subjects.
