Review Style Variations Rapidly
Who can benefit from Fireflyline 3D virtual samples?
How does the process work?
The actual 2D pattern is used to create the 3D sample. We designate which seams to sew together and the software stitches them together onto an avatar. The avatar can be adjusted in size and measurements to match your organization’s standards. The physical features (skin, hair, etc) of the avatar can also be changed to reflect your market. If you don’t like the appearance of the avatar for presentations, we can send you images to review with and without the avatar.
We offer a variety of pricing packages based on your business needs. If you want to use the 3D virtual sample as a way to review several design options we can review those in a live webinar. If you are confident in the designs and need images for a presentation, we can create and send the images.
- Organizations looking for a way to better visualize designs or determine print/graphic scale or placement.
- Organizations who want to test 3D virtual samples in their development process without committing to purchasing licenses or taking time away from their current process/staff.
- Organizations with minimal resources who want to use 3D virtual samples.
- Small design firms who want a way to market and test designs before proceeding with physical samples.
- Contact Fireflyline if you are experiencing bottlenecks and need extra help.
- Fireflyline can help you prepare for a major meeting or presentation.

Review Color and Pattern
Do 3D virtual samples work better for some products?
The easiest products to create in 3D are simple garments with limited layers or hardware. The hardest are those like outerwear with layers of insulation, lining and hard trims. The good news is we like challenges! Share your designs for review. The only products that cannot be created in 3D are knit to shape garments like sweaters.
How do 3D virtual samples change my development process?
Using virtual samples can eliminate many costly sample iterations and allow you to visualize the actual style faster. You will still need to review at least one physical sample, but multiple iterations of samples can be eliminated. Weeks are removed from the development cycle!
