Time = Money

Everyone hates samples. Everyone.

Manufacturers hate making them. It takes up a lot of the pattern maker’s time, as well as the sample sewer’s time.

Time = Money

Brands hate paying for them. They are expensive, take a lot of product development time, and are ultimately wasteful.

Mills hate making tiny quantites. They are forced to make sample rolls of hundreds of qualities JUST IN CASE someone wants to order 2-3 yards at the fabric show.

Hmmm. I wonder if there was a way do away with at least one (or two…or three) physical samples?

I wonder…

Um, 3D software does just that, and at a fairly low entry fee.

Want to see what the dress looks like 3” shorter? Longer? Sleeveless? With a ruffle? With a waist seam? Princess seams? Stand collar? Forward shoulder seam?

Want to see what the shirt looks like in Oxford Cloth? Terry Cloth? Wool Plaid? Silk Stripe? Chiffon Paisley? Seersucker? Leather?

You can see ALL of those options in an hour using 3D software.

The final, functional fitting will still need to be finalized in a physical proto in the actual fabric that has been purchased for production.

But you can get 85-95% closer utilizing 3D.

Save Time. Save Money. Save headaches. Use 3D.
