Quick Tutorial: Creating 3D Shoulder Pads with VStitcher
In this video tutorial, we'll learn how to create shoulder pads using Browzwear's 3D design software.
During a recent workshop at the IACDE 3D Summit, our expert, Dorelle McPherson, led an engaging session focused on the 3D Design Brief. She took participants on a captivating journey, providing guidance on crafting a design brief and optimizing the workflow.
From selecting fabrics to sketching and refining designs, Dorelle shares invaluable insights and hands-on techniques using the latest version of VStitcher. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Courtney Love's 1995 red carpet slip dress, this workshop is a unique blend of nostalgia and contemporary design principles.
Key Takeaways from the Session:
- A Design Brief is the key communication link between a brand or fashion label and garment producers. This process involves conveying the collection's theme, style concepts, technical intricacies, and design specifications.
- Whether working with internal or external partners, conducting the process in 3D serves as a pivotal step in the collaborative journey. It offers precise instructions and invaluable information to the product development teams, empowering them to craft the desired styles for meticulous review and refinement.
- The powerful combination of Stylezone and VStitcher facilitates smooth communication between various stakeholders.
- This collaboration empowers technical designers, fashion designers, merchandisers, and executives to collaborate effectively, maximizing resources and speeding up the time it takes to bring products to market.
