Creative creation in CLO 3D
The fashion industry is in the process of transitioning, and this places increased demands on expertise in sustainability and digitalization. Skills development is therefore more important than ever.
Through CLO, fewer samples need to be sewn up and sent around the world, and decisions can be made faster as the products in CLO become more lifelike.
The design process is thus more sustainable and saves the environment, time and money.
"We demand someone product design of 3D skills in all our design recruitment, the higher the better."
Anna Norling, Head of Design at Weekday and member of the Board of Directors of Beckmans
