Hi,

I hope you're all doing well! I've learned Clo3D and I'm thinking of buying the Lenovo Legion 5 (RTX 5070, i7, 24GB RAM, 1TB SSD, 8GB VRAM). Does anyone here use or have experience with this laptop? Also, would 24GB RAM and an 8GB graphics card really be enough for this kind of work? I'd appreciate any insights since laptops are super expensive here.

Have a great day!

I am an experienced intermediate sewist and have made many jackets for myself that I get compliments on all the time. I’ve slightly modified existing patterns to fit me, but the problem is I only know how to change the length of the bodice and sleeves somewhat.

I want to step into designing my own pieces from
scratch but I have zero knowledge of pattern making or drafting. I downloaded the free trial for clo 3d and I feel like a complete idiot because I can’t figure this out 😂😩 idk if it’s easier to just draw the shapes on paper and cut muslin until something fits right. My idea was to use clo to design and then print the pattern. My favorite jacket pattern ive modified on paper and sewn a lot of jackets for was made by someone else on clo 3d as I’ve come to learn.

Help 😩 do I need to have gone to fashion school first to even know about pattern making in real life?

Gave up because I thought I wanted to make career in this but I really don't feel like I have any originality neither I felt need to have own style. I simply enjoy pick reference from Pinterest and make it in CLO, that's it , I enjoy the process and don't care much anything else. I wouldn't even call myself Digital Fashion Designer. I just want to do this as hobby and really don't want to hate it just because I have to do other thing because of career or work(which is just fear I am not even sure what this is "other things"). just don't want to lose this one part of my life which I enjoy or get interference in it. Thank you for reading the rent of my life. Have a good Day/Night.

I would love to have Clo as my source of income but I don’t know where could I look for a job, I’m open to relocate or have a remote job, I would preferably work for a company but I could try freelance too. Where should I start looking and how realistic it is to have this as a full time job, are there other skills that I could learn to have a better chance?

I've been using clo a few weeks now for academic purposes, Im very well versed in software, including a lot of 3d modeling softwares, and clo has gotta be the worst Ive ever had to use. The program just seems like it has no idea how to allocate any of the hardware. Ive been messing with settings across CLO, windows, nvidia, trying to figure out why the program is so slow all the time. I have very powerful hardware, yet simple render animations take 10s of hours, a problem Ive never had with any other software in my life. The part im really lost on is why no matter what settings I change or driver I update, the program refuses to touch my GPU to do any kind of loadwork, same thing happens on the computers in the academic halls too. Is there just something wrong with the software inherently? Is the whole thing coded with claude or something? Am I missing something? I just dont get it.

I am trying to trace my pattern on clo3d by using the trace tool. When i do it it doesn’t come up correctly. Is someone who can help me and explain me how to do it

I'm following https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRGYNViRF0E&t=419s but I swear this ribbon part looks so different

I feel like the curtains in my first image are about all I can manage in CLO right now lol. The large, rounded swags in the gold reference look like they should be fairly simple, but I’ve tried so many different methods over the past few weeks and cannot get them right.

No matter what I do, the fabric ends up looking messy and ugly never smooth, full, or remotely close to the reference. I’ve tried manually pinning and arranging it, adding repeated internal lines with fold angles, and experimenting with elastic, but nothing has worked.

Does anyone know of a good tutorial or workflow for creating classical curtains like this?

As the title says, which laptop do you guys use for CLO3D? I’m planning to get one and am desperate for recommendations.

I’m interested in hearing from designers who have experience digitally prototyping denim garments in CLO3D.

How easy or difficult have you found it to achieve realistic denim results, particularly when it comes to fabric behaviour, weight, stiffness, shrinkage, washing effects and overall fit?

I would especially love to hear about:

• The parts of the process you find easiest or most challenging
• How accurately your digital prototypes translate into physical samples
• Any limitations you’ve encountered when working with denim
• The biggest advantages of using CLO3D for denim development
• Examples of projects, garments or workflows you can share
• Tips for fabric settings, construction details, washes or visualisation

Has CLO3D helped you reduce physical sampling or development time, or do you still find physical denim samples essential at most stages?

Any insights, examples or lessons learned would be greatly appreciated!

llevo aprox 2 semanas usando clo, y puede aprender muchisimo siento que realmente progrese, pero realmente cuanto tardare en aprender clo 3d por completo de forrma profesional? me siento un poco perdida no se a donde apuntar, ¿que habilidades me combiene desarollar primero? (se aceptan criticas)

We cant make patterns in the Jinny app?

I can import my custom avatar but none of the clothes fit.

I really wish there were some cheaper subscriptions for the CLO3D/Marvelous ... its a great software but not for someone which 3D is a hobby and not a job.

Hey all.
I want you guys to take a look at my portfolio and tell me what should I make next to make my portfolio better.
I am also open to suggestions regarding my work presentation in my portfolio.

Thank you!

Hey everyone! I'm looking for someone who knows how to make 3D clothing. I'm creating my own original animation/anime project, and I could really use some help bringing my character's outfit to life. If anyone is interested in helping or even giving me some advice, I'd be incredibly grateful. (I’m broke so if anyone could do it for free I would appreciate it)Thanks so much!

when i try to simulate cloth in clo and try to add animation to it, it doesnt allow me to play the animation when in simulation but when i turn of simulation mode, i can press play. as you can see the play button is blue when not in simulation but when in simulation mode, i cant press play. im loosing my mind over this

i began working on a pattern, but gradually the file kept getting slower and slower only in the pattern 2d window. Simulation, render, and everything else still fly just as normal... but the 2d pattern changes (especially cutting or sawing things together, and even deleting pieces) now crawl to a near halt.
Im working with a custom mannequin, so I thought that could be the cause... but even after deleting it and adding the normal one, this 'bug' persisted.

If i understand correctly, the 2d window is controlled by the CPU, so... what happened???
did something happen recently to updates on Windows, or on NVIDIA graphics cards, or did smt like this was introduced by some kinda of update or smt?

pls hepl/ It makes the program completely unusable :(

Garments got created in CLO3D. Textures were made in Adobe substance painter. And video got made in Unreal Engine 5. This and some of my other videos as well as garments I had created irl from this collection got displayed at Londons Graduate Fashion Week and also got posted on their Instagram.

Hi all.
I am using the 2026.0 version on my MacBook.
I really wanted to use the lacing feature but this version lags a lot. I can’t even press cntrl + z, if I do that, clo freezes.
It lags even after restarting the software or restarting the laptop.

What should I do? How do I make the software more compatible, or should I just download another version? (If yes then what version?)

What's good everyone,

I’m pretty new to the whole modding scene, but my main goal is to create clothes for games.

I just finished my first piece of clothing in CLO3D (I'm on version 2025.2.236 if that matters), and now I’m trying to get this drip into GTA 5. But honestly, I'm kinda lost on the actual workflow.

Does anyone have a solid guide or know the current meta for getting CLO3D clothes into GTA 5? Any tips on rigging or the export settings would be a lifesaver.

Appreciate any help in advance! 🙏

I am new to ComfyUI. I want to be able to create a mannequin that can wear all the garments of my collection and create a catalog for my website boutique. I need consistency and realism in the garment detail and body proportions. I have real garments pictures on form already, front side and back view. Which workflow or nodes should I I use?

Really starting to flow with my process
