I was inspired to draw this chav cartoon after a pal and I were discussing what a chav is and what one has to do and wear to be a Chav. So here's my idea of what a Chav looks like. I've drawn it cartoon style using fibre and brush tip pens.
I think this cartoon chav looks a bit like Jordan aka Katie Price.
Here's my 'How to spot a Chav list'.
- Spidery fake lashes
- Collagen Lips
- Orange fake tan
- Large breasts
- Dyed black hair & extensions
- Large Hoop earrings
- Silver brand name jewelery
- Belly button piercings
- Tattoos in Chinese & Arabic
- Tracky bottoms with top rolled down and label showing
- Camel-toe
- Flat suede, slipper-boots
- Small Pooch accessory
Are you a Chav?
If you have more than 50% of these you might be a CHAV ..OH NO!!!

Top-level comments on this article: (4 total)Great drawing Leah, but of course I have to be the first to ask (and maybe the only one) what is a Chav? :)
Cute but I too would like to know what a Chav is?
This is a Chav :)It's a word used in English culture to describe a certain style of dress, though it's disputed now as to what a Chav is. My view of a chav is that they're more money than class. But some report that they're just no-money, tracksuit wearing, hoody types.My chavette here is trying to look 'money' with her jewellry, fake tan, large breasts, fake lashes, nails, hair etc. But her tracksuit, Ugg boots and label sticking out of her pants give her away as does the 'fashion accessory' pooch.
Change the poorch for a staffie and your be bang on the button!cool, thanks :)
