Digital Fashion Design: Opportunities and Challenges
Main Article Content
Abstract
The digital revolution has significantly impacted various industries, and fashion design is no exception. Digital fashion design encompasses the use of computer-aided design (CAD) software, 3D modeling, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) to create and visualize clothing and accessories. This paper explores the opportunities and challenges associated with digital fashion design. On the opportunity front, digital fashion design offers several advantages. It enhances creativity and innovation by providing designers with advanced tools to experiment with new ideas and concepts. The use of 3D modeling and VR allows for the creation of virtual prototypes, reducing the need for physical samples and thereby saving time and resources. Digital platforms also enable greater customization and personalization of fashion items, meeting the growing demand for unique and individualized products.
