Fold Simplification

I've watched some YouTube videos on drawing folds, but I feel like I'm copying without understanding the folds themselves.
To be fair, I started doing folds two days ago, so maybe I'll naturally understand over time, but I hope hearing feedback will make it click that much faster.
As I got all my reference from Pinterest, I unfortunately lost one picture by forgetting to save it. I also noticed that I chose poor references for my first two sketches (the jeans ones), and tried to pick better pictures that have clear folds from then on.
If you have any thoughts, I'd like to hear them. Thanks!
The key to wrinkles and folds is to use them to your advantage. They can help describe perspective and anatomy. The other major thing to do is to simplify them so that you don't have too many folds, or folds and wrinkles that work against your perspective.
I did some quick examples that I hope helps :)
