VIRTUAL SAMPLING
What is virtual sampling & modeling?
Virtual Sampling is a modernized version of traditional sampling.
The traditional prototyping process is being replaced by a much faster and less costly digital 3D method. The 3D virtual sampling is done by using 3D software where the 2D pattern is created/copied into a 3D digital pattern.
Virtual Sampling and Modelling is the digitalized form of the traditional sampling process where samples can be reviewed anywhere, anytime and by anyone needed. This enables fashion brands and manufacturers to cut costs and save time on materials, labor and shipping from multiple rounds of amendments; while also becoming more socially responsible in their development of products.
How does it work?
In order to create an accurate 3D digital garment sample, you will need to provide us sketches, patterns, fabric types (content and weight).
