XFSH3031 - Digital Fashion Design with CLO

Course Description

Witness your fashion designs come to life without ever touching a sewing machine. Using CLO, students learn how to translate 2D patterns into 3D garments. This beginner’s course gets fashion designers up and running with this powerful visualization tool to create their own designs on a 3D avatar.

Techniques covered include navigating the workspace, pattern drawing, digital sewing tools, designing and manipulating garments; assigning fabrics, colors, and textures; adding trims like piping and decorative top stitches; and rendering completed designs. The final output will be a turntable style video of a design rotating 360 degrees.

Note:

• Students should have basic computer skills to participate. Adobe Illustrator, and basic patternmaking are recommended, but not required.
