The Essentials of CLO
for Designers
Bring your fashions and soft apparels,
into 3D and to reality.
into 3D and to reality.
From designing to creating patterns, preparing files for suppliers, or expanding your collection to include all sizes and genders, you need an all-in-one software for designing soft products.
- You're a pro (or not..) at Rhino, Alias, SolidWorks, etc...but this time, you need a software to "CAD" soft apparels.
- You don't know how to prepare the 2D patterns which will be used for the production or calculating the amount of textiles needed to make your new advanced winter coat design, a new shirt collection, or the sport bag for your client.
- You want to cut down on prototyping time and cost by having a software that helps you resolve technical and production issues before the factory point them at you.
- You don’t know how to communicate your design or prepare tech packs for a supplier or factory.
- You think that expanding your design to a whole collection that matches all sex and sizes is an impossible task which could take you weeks of work!
You want to design, calculate material use, and facilitate production thanks to an efficient tool.
- You need to master a tool that enables you to explore your fashion ideas and creative trends.
- You want to automatically generate the 2D patterns (tech packs) to be sent for production, as well as easily calculate the amount of textiles needed to design 1 apparel or a whole collection.
- You want to save time, resources, and prototypes when coming to production.
- You need to easily scale your design to create a whole range that fits all people sizes, sex, and demography.
The Essentials of CLO
for Designers
Bring your fashions and soft apparels, into 3D and to reality.
Designed with a progressive approach, this course is suitable for beginners to intermediates who are eager to go from the fundamental tools to creating anything in Clo 3D.
Step 1, Master the UI, tools & techniques
At first, I'll help you to make the most of this software by helping you master the interface and navigate with ease through all its features. Every 3D software appears intimidating at first. I'll give you enough understanding of the UI, tools and techniques so that you feel under control and know where to find what you need (even when I'm not here...).
Bring your design to life and visualize every update and option in real time.
Whether you're creating a basic T-shirt or a complex bag with multiple compartments, I'll guide you in transforming your sketches into detailed CAD designs. Through hands-on exercises, we will learn to refine your designs, just like if you were adjusting a textile on a real-life body. With real-time visualizations, we'll make instant modifications and explore various material, color, or detail options. We'll then generate precise visuals, 360-degree views, and animations for your presentations, clients, or upcoming tech pack, which will serve as a reference for production.
Stitching, seam taping, zippers and even graphics! You may need them all, so we go through them all
Another useful point is that whether you design shoes for Nike with complex and modern assembly processes or create outfits, coats, trousers, or leather bags, each product involves different techniques and details. We will explore the application of various details such as zippers, buttons, stitches, ropes, webbing, buckles, seam taping, and other modern techniques that you may need for your work, including graphics and patterns.
Expanding your design to a range based on different people, populations, sizes, and genders.
You can, of course, create a one-off version of your jacket, trousers, sports bag, or advanced winter coat. But you can also populate your own full collection by setting up your scene, and fully expanding it to a range based on different people, populations, sizes, and genders. The dream comes true, and to say that it is a HUGE time saver is an understatement!
From a simple t-shirt to the most advanced winter coat, CLO is your partner for prototyping efficiency and production.
We will then progress to creating precise files for exchanging with suppliers. You will learn how to digitally examine the patterns provided by your supplier and virtually sew them. Additionally, you will gain the skills to generate and adapt your own 2D patterns, ensuring they align perfectly with your unique designs.
Moreover, we will also develop the ability to assess 2D plans for optimal graphic placement and make clear estimations of fabric consumption. All these processes and methodologies will enhance communication with your suppliers and significantly reduce production time during the crucial prototyping phase.
And guess what? CLO also identifies and resolves technical issues. Not only is it useful for us, but it's also eco-conscious as it minimizes the need for physical prototypes and reduces the time spent visiting suppliers or shipping samples across the globe. Very good! 🙂
Yes, I want to design and make exciting apparels by mastering CLO 3D, and facilitate the whole development process.
Lifetime access to receive all upcoming videos and updates.
They say nothing is forever, well in this case it is! You have access to the program from now on and for life. This includes all updates and surprises which we will keep adding (loads already in the pipeline!) as well as new videos for members only.

Your Teacher? Meet Angela, a Soft Lover Power Woman!
Hi everyone! I'm a Swiss fashion designer currently based in Salzburg, Austria. With over 10 years of experience as an apparel designer, I specialize in the sportswear and athleisure industry with a focus on trends, functionality, and production. I've spent my entire career in design agencies, developing soft products for top global brands and bringing them to reality. CLO3D is my tool, and I'll show you the best way to use it and bring your designs from sketches to the shelves. Schön!
Frequently Asked Questions
100%. When you’re ready, you can export it in different files, and your manufacturing team can get to work.
But that’s not all! You can even import DXF patterns from previous styles or basic patterns from your supplier and design and adapt them before exporting them again. If you’re experienced in pattern making, you can define the pattern even further with seam allowance and grading.
Other examples, like checking the size for graphics and calculating fabric consumption, can be handy in communication with your suppliers.
I’m here to guide you through these different options and ensure your design comes out exactly the way you want it. Just sit back and let me show you how it’s done.
About 16 hours spread across various chapters. This course is exceptionally comprehensive, and anyone who completes it will be able to achieve everything I described on this page. More importantly, you’ll gain the skills to unleash your own designs and take full control of the software. So, get ready to elevate your abilities to the next level!
The course is suitable for anyone, whether you are a student or well into your design career.
For beginners, this course starts from scratch and progressively moves from simple to complex products and more advanced techniques, such as my workflow that enables you to stay organized, efficient, and logical in the way you build.
For those who are already more experienced, it’s the same scenario. Imagine if you were to transfer all your knowledge to me; I would still learn a lot. So, in this case, if I share all my knowledge about the software and everything it encompasses—pattern marking, production tips, organization, etc.—there are plenty of things that could complement what you already know.
The entire course is available online, on the private section of the leManoosh website. You will receive the password and login approximately 5 seconds after going through the checkout.
All modules, videos, and downloadable resources can be found there, accessible anywhere, anytime!
The course also works seamlessly on tablets and phones.
You have the option to leave a comment under each video, so feel free to ask your questions here; don’t be shy, as your question might be the same as another student’s.
I will reply to your comment, and hopefully, that will help you overcome any problems you’re facing.
If you enroll in the course during the offer period, you will also receive lifetime access. This means that I will provide you with feedback if you get stuck along the way.
You will need a computer with internet to have access to the videos, and you will also need CLO 3D (ideally the 7.2 of after) installed on your computer.
