“…Although prescribed procedures were followed, the control of adding seam allowance or moving a section was problematic, as the tutorial for Seamly2D referred to an older version that probably provided the function, but was no longer found in the newer version. Two-dimensional pattern design software based on flat patternmaking techniques has been successfully explored for patternmaking, grading, and creating pattern libraries within software for future retrieval [34]. More importantly, grading in different sizes, which is an irreplaceable tool and command for pattern developers in the fashion industry, is simplified as a process only in professional licensed CAD systems.…”

Most universities have included computer-aided design (CAD) pattern making systems education and training in their clothing technology courses in recent years, so as to respond to the actual needs of the fashion world for high-skilled fashion designers and clothing engineers. With the rapid rise in the use of open source software (OSS) in all types of applications, it is important to know if the existing OSS CAD software for garment prototyping development can successfully support the learning process. The present study compares two commercial licensed CAD systems for pattern design (Polypattern and Create) to an open source software, Seamly2D, and to Wild Ginger’s Caveo V6 programme, which runs within an OSS. In total, two licensed and two OSS systems have been evaluated in their weights in accomplishing the garment development of ten different pattern designs. The results obtained for the evaluation of a set of OS and licensed CAD systems are presented and critically discussed.

“…The computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) system performs substantially related to manufacturing, such as marker planning, spreading, and cutting. In the actual clothing production process, CAD/CAM systems, such as pattern design, grading, 3D virtual simulation, and markers, improve overall productivity, accuracy, and efficiency by reducing sample production, shortening the time required for the entire work, and reducing fabric waste [3,13,14]. In this study, as a part of the automated manufacturing process of smart clothing, the CAD/CAM system was used to establish pattern making, simulation of virtual fit, and marker planning.…”

The garment manufacturing industry is a labor-intensive industry, with one of the slowest transitions to automation. Hence, it is essential to build a smart factory based on automated systems to improve productivity and allow responsive production in the market. In this study, the manufacturing processes for a smart sports bra were established and optimized using various automated machines. For this system, computer-based 3D virtual design software, a technical embroidery machine, an automatic cutting machine, an industrial robot arm with gripper, and an industrial pattern sewing machine were used. The design and materials of the sports bra were selected considering embroidery, cutting, robot gripping, and sewing processes. In addition, conductive thread and light-emitting diode (LED) sequences were used to implement smart functions to the sports bra. Transport of intermediate materials, work orders, and process conditions were optimized to improve the flexible connection of each process and the quality of the final product. This study suggests the concept of the automated manufacturing system that minimizes human intervention by connecting the processes needed to produce a smart sports bra using various automation equipment and programs already used in the industry.

“…Nowadays, computerized mechanisms of production—3D body scan technology, automated pattern generation, virtual simulation—have transformed the creative landscape in which designs are conceived and ultimately fabricated. Virtual simulation in the design process enabled enhanced visualization in the creative design process (Stylios et al , 1996) and the streamlining of the overall garment production process (Jhanji, 2018; Luo and Yuen, 2005; Stjepanovic, 1995). The transition from 3D body scan data to two-dimensional (2D) customized patterns has been explored in previous research in 3D product development and is an expanding area of inquiry as algorithmic techniques become more prolific (Liu et al , 2010).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to create a corset—understructure as well as fabric covering—using only computational, 3D approaches to fashion design. The process incorporated 3D body scan data, parametric methods for the 3D-printed design, and algorithmic methods for the automated, custom-fit fabric pattern.Design/methodology/approachThe methods or protocol-based framework that nucleated this design project (see Figure 1) enabled more concentrated research into the iterative step-by-step procedure and the computational techniques used herein.FindingsThe 3D computational methods in this study demonstrated a new way of rendering the body-to-pattern relationship through the use of multiple software platforms. Using body scan data and computer coding, the computational construction methods in this study showed a pliant and sustainable method of clothing design where designers were able to manipulate the X, Y, and Z coordinates of the points on the scan surface.Research limitations/implicationsA study of algorithmic methods is inherently a study of limitation. The iterative process of design was defined and refined through the particularity of an algorithm, which required thoughtful manipulation to inform the outcome of this research.Practical implicationsThis study sought to illustrate the use and limitations of algorithm-driven computer programming to advance creative design practices.Social implicationsAs body scan data and biometric information become increasingly common components of computational fashion design practices, the need for more research on the use of these techniques is pressing. Moreover, computational techniques serve as a catalyst for discussions about the use of biometric information in design and data modeling.Originality/valueThe process of designing in 3D allowed for the dynamic capability to manipulate proportion and form using parametric design techniques.
