Abstract

Three-dimensional garment design technology is transforming design, product development, and fit assessment in the apparel industry. Converting two-dimensional patterns into 3D garment models on digital mannequins enables designers to visualize garment silhouettes, assess design structures, and reduce reliance on physical prototypes. However, simulation accuracy depends on several factors, including pattern-data quality, the anthropometric measurements of digital mannequins, the mechanical properties of fabrics, and fabric- simulation algorithms. This article evaluates the accuracy of converting 2D patterns into 3D garment models on digital mannequins and identifies the principal factors affecting the reliability of the resulting simulations.

Keywords: 2D patterns, 3D garment models, accuracy, digital mannequins, fashion design, simulation.
