Creative Strategy & Planning focuses on collection architecture, target market positioning, retail pricing, and competitive line planning. Technical Design Services delivers hands-on execution: CAD flat drawings, construction callouts, fabric color palettes, and line sheet preparation.
A technical flat is a precise, vector-drawn representation of your garment showing front and back views with all construction details: seam placements, stitching styles, closures, lining specifications, and hardware callouts. Flats eliminate manufacturing errors and ensure accurate sample making.
CLO 3D creates a photorealistic, 360-degree digital prototype of your garment on custom virtual avatars. During a virtual fitting session with our patternmakers, you can request adjustments to drape, fit, and proportions before physical fabric is cut, saving thousands in sample iterations and shipping fees.
