lzhang1@iastate.edu
Introduction to computer-aided patternmaking software related to pattern modification, pattern drafting, grading, marker making, and 3D virtual fitting. Programs include Lectra Modaris, CLO, and Adobe Creative Suite.
Bra analysis
A grant from Cotton Incorporated funded the project. The project was called The Bra Project, and it required three of the AMD classes to collaborate and create a bra from scratch using the skills learned in each specific class. AMD 310 was required to research design trends and use Modaris to create a bra pattern from scratch. Then print out the patterns and construct a bra with printed fabric designed by students in AMD 321.
