FASHION CAD

Graphic design is a knowledge-intensive and creative course and a professional designer should know a wide range and combinations of materials to work with along with the knowledge of wide range of colours, patterns and styles to choose from. The designers are expected to design clothes that are functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. New technology such as CAD has dramatically transformed the process of design. It enables students to showcase their work in different perspectives and provides a 360-degree view of a design. Many reputed fashion designers may choose to initially design their creations manually; CAD software is normally used in the latter portions of the design process. The software is preferred by apparel manufacturers to determine the most efficient marker and to align the patterns in an economical manner. The virtual prototyping enables to check the fit and drape of a garment. Designers can then make any necessary modifications to the design instantaneously. The course provides students with an opportunity to understand the importance of combining technology with creativity for a quality output.
