3D Clothing Rendering Pipeline
Developing a pattern-to-pants graphics pipeline
Prompt
For the Prickly Clothing Company, what changes about eCommerce when you can offer consumers unlimited SKUs?
Insight
Thanks to print-on-demand and 3d-printing, a growing number of physical products can be efficiently produced as just-in-time one-offs. If merchants can offer a wider variety of products, without the overhead of physical inventory, they can address a longer tail of customer needs.
Solution
Developed pipeline to transform digital pattern images into virtual inventory of women’s athletic leggings, rendering patterns, print files for manufacturing, inventory images and ads, then pushing inventory to multiple storefronts
Results
- 748 unique leggings generated, 4488 SKUs
- New inventory could be generated in seconds
