A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating a Digital Prototype

Browzwear is a 3D apparel design solution that allows you to create 3D models of garments and accessories. Here is a step-by-step guide to creating your first digital prototype using Browzwear’s 3D apparel software, VStitcher.

Step 1 Choose your garment type

When starting the design process, the first step is to build your initial design concept. This is where you choose the garments you want to create for your latest collection. To facilitate an efficient digital design workflow, Browzwear launched their 3D Block Library, which can be found in the Cloud Library in VStitcher. The library contains a variety of ready-to-use, designed styles for both men and women that you can edit, adjust, and customize without having to start from scratch every time.

Now that you have developed your concept and chosen your garment type, it’s time to select a variety of fabrics from Browzwear’s Fabric Library. You can also upload your own specific fabric.

Step 2 Adjust the garment to fit your model

When it comes to achieving the correct fit, 3D fashion design software VStitcher has got you covered, as with its comprehensive set of tools, you can correct any fit or styling issues on digital samples in just a matter of minutes. Another great solution that Browzwear provides is the Fabric Analyzer. With this technology, you can determine the physical properties of any fabric from its stretch and thickness to the bend, which in turn helps you to accurately visualize how the fabric folds and falls on a parametric avatar, ensuring the perfect fit for all body types and sizes.

Step 3 Customize the details

Once you have chosen your garment type and achieved an accurate fit, you can start to add your personal touch and customize the details of your garment by adding a variety of artwork, cut marks, different collar styles, buttons, and pockets to ensure that your garment looks its best.

Step 4 Save and export your design

Finally, once you’re happy with your design, you can save it as an image or 3D file for printing or continue editing in other software programs. If you would like to showcase and align your design with the relevant stakeholders at your organization, you can utilize Browzwear’s collaboration platform, Stylezone.

Why Use 3D Clothing Design Software?

There are many reasons to shift to 3D for garment sampling. Firstly, VStitcher is incredibly user-friendly and easy to use, even for those with no prior experience in 3D apparel design or CAD. Secondly, Browzwear’s 3D apparel design solution offers a wide range of features and options for creating digital prototypes, making it the perfect tool for large and small projects. Thirdly, Browzwear is extremely affordable, especially compared to other 3D design software tools on the market.

Finally, Browzwear is constantly updated with the latest technology and advances in 3D design, so you can be confident that your prototype will be created using the most up-to-date software available.
