NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 14, 2020

Browzwear, a leader of 3D technology for the apparel industry, and STITCH, the tech incubator originated from PVH Europe, today announced that Browzwear will be working closely with the new STITCH Accelerator Program to create the most efficient 3D design workflows and tools. Leveraging Browzwear’s 3D solutions, already an essential part of STITCH’s unique digital apparel workflows, the unique training and certification program will ensure designers, pattern makers and product developers have hands-on experience with the technologies powering digital transformation throughout the industry.

The initiative, which follows Tommy Hilfiger’s announced plans to have a 100 percent digital design workflow by 2022, will accelerate delivery on those goals by growing the pool of fashion designers and pattern makers with expertise in the technologies fueling the industry’s future. The program will prepare participants for the fully-digital apparel development workflow created by STITCH and implemented recently by PVH Europe, including practical training with VStitcher, Browzwear’s 3D apparel development software, enabling them to thrive in an industry increasingly powered by 3D technology. Participants of the STITCH Accelerator program will be able to work for the brands interested in scaling up their 3D operations, like STITCH’s first client PVH Amsterdam.

With their industry-changing emphasis on 3D-powered design, STITCH is demonstrating how technology can help fashion companies to operate more efficiently and sustainably. For example, Browzwear’s true-to-life 3D prototypes can accurately replace physical samples for both designers and pattern makers throughout the design, prototyping, fitting and sales processes.

As part of their ongoing relationship, Browzwear will continue to build solutions in partnership with STITCH to accelerate their ability to automate and optimize design and merchandising workflows, reduce waste of physical resources and drive a faster time to market for PVH’s brands such as Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein.

“Browzwear’s long-standing relationship with STITCH is part of our commitment to partnering with stakeholders throughout the apparel development process to bring to market solutions that will make their organizations and the entire industry more efficient, sustainable and profitable,” said Sharon Lim, co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of Browzwear. “We know from our vast experience that adopting 3D solutions brings companies competitive advantage in a challenging business environment. To maximize that advantage, it’s imperative that we work together to re-design the product-life-cycle of the future.”

“3D design is picking up speed in the fashion industry and with STITCH we are pushing to build the scalable digital value chain. With the STITCH Accelerator program we develop 3D Design talent to support the 3D value chain for our clients and offer them instant 3D firepower while they transform in their organization and talent” said Dominic Sluiter, Head of STITCH3D. “Browzwear enables us to develop the best talent and build the fastest and most scalable 3D workflow possible. STITCH and Browzwear have a long friendship working very closely helping the fashion industry go digital and we are glad to be strengthening our relationship through this collaboration.”

NEW YORK, JANUARY 23, 2020

Browzwear, a global leader in 3D technology for the apparel industry, today announced the collaboration with Sketchfab, a leading online platform for displaying and sharing 3D content over the internet. The two companies are working together to bring new 3D experiences to the online fashion and apparel market, facilitating the export of true-to-life 3D garments from Browzwear’s VStitcher to Sketchfab’s high-performance embedded HTML 3D viewer. The new capability opens a variety of opportunities for apparel companies to showcase 3D garments across the web.

The new capabilities, available in Browzwear’s January product update, are enabled by the addition of GL Transmission Format (glTF) compatibility, which facilitates the import and export of 3D files to different applications without loss of quality. Now, glTF files created with Browzwear can be delivered seamlessly and rendered perfectly in Sketchfab’s embedded viewer without requiring additional adjustments.

“In giving the apparel industry the most realistic, accurate 3D models, we’re enabling a future in which businesses produce fewer physical samples, yet sell more items,” said Uri Tzadikevitch, VP of Product at Browzwear. “Every tool we create in partnership with innovators like Sketchfab adds to our customers’ ability to increase creativity with efficiency, reduce waste and grow revenue. Combined, this leads to more sustainable businesses, both economically and ecologically.”

“Sketchfab has become the de facto standard for publishing and sharing 3D content among a broad swath of the creative community. Partnering with Browzwear enables us to extend our reach into the apparel market as well,” said Alban Denoyel, co-founder & CEO of Sketchfab. “We look forward to replicating the success we’ve had with independent designers and small and medium business in the enterprise market.”

Browzwear will be showcasing the latest updates to their 3D design solutions in a Webinar on Thursday, January 30th. To attend, please visit: http://bit.ly/2EstEbT
