Lectra launched the new version of the software at the China International Sewing Machinery & Accessories Show (CISMA) in Shanghai at the end of September.
“Modaris is currently the most widely used apparel pattern-making and grading software in the world. It is the standard among major French and Italian luxury brands but has also been readily adopted by different types of fashion and apparel companies around the globe,” said chief executive, Daniel Harari. “Lectra has invested in researching and developing a 3D virtual prototyping solution adapted to the world of fashion. Modaris V7 puts 3D technology at the heart of style development and helps fashion companies optimise the conception phase of their collections, essential to ensuring profitability and competitiveness.”
The development means patterns can be drafted and then seen in 3D in a specific fabric right away. Any onscreen adjustments are then directly applied to the flat pattern. Modifications are visible in real time, in both flat and 3D modes. This interactive process significantly reduces prototyping costs and development time, while giving companies the control and flexibility they need to make decisions quickly.
