My dad was, of course, my inspiration. He’s a bit of a fashionista.

Q. What is 3D fashion design software?A: During her internship at FIT’s Infor/DTech Lab, Lucy Chen, Fashion Design '19, used Bowzwear, a 3D fashion design software which is sustainable because it helps eliminate the samples from the garment production cycle.

I digitized a lot of the materials for the samples. You don’t even have to use actual fabric or actual materials to create it.
