Pattern design and 3D virtual prototyping: an innovation/major technical advance for fashion schools and businesses
3D technologies for fashion were also a subject of exchange among participants who were thus able to capitalize on the expertise of schools that have already integrated 3D virtual prototyping into their courses.
Sandra Kuijpers and Ineke Siersema, both teachers at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, presented the work their students did for a competition on 3D virtual prototyping organized by their institution and Lectra. These creations convinced the participants that 3D technologies presented a real advantage for designers and pattern-making departments. This discussion highlighted the value of Modaris V7, Lectra's pattern-making and 3D virtual prototyping solution.
Lectra's education congress: an anticipated annual event and an enriching opportunity to share experiences
A place for the exchange of experience and expertise, the education congress has also allowed many schools to present their educational programs, including De Monfort University (United Kingdom), which has developed a course dedicated entirely to lingerie and undergarments, and Studio Moda Rossella (Italy) which has placed technology at the center of its development process.
Patrick Hierf, pedagogical coordinator for the Ecole de la Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne (France), revealed the school's new directions: "A year ago, our institution reinforced its study program by turning to the expertise of fashion professionals and by increased our use of Lectra's new technologies. This gives our students a closer link to business and allows them to be more effective as soon as they enter the work force."
Lectra is the world leader in integrated technology solutions that automate, streamline and accelerate product design, development and manufacturing processes for industries using soft materials.
