CLO

Designers use CLO to edit 2D garment patterns and simulate their drape on a 3D avatar. Print Layout supports print placement and fabric-consumption calculations. In AI Studio, designers can develop textures or generate fashion images, including try-on and flat-lay views. Those image workflows serve a different production decision from checking a pattern: a convincing generated garment image does not establish the fit or construction of a physical sample.
