Interview with Eric liu & Danny Reinfeld, Style3D
The whole-enterprise importance of 3D is creating new opportunities and new challenges. We talk to Style3D to get a fresh perspective on what’s possible.
Moving from 3D to a new digital product creation ecosystem
For fashion to truly scale its Digital Product Creation ambitions, the industry must switch from thinking about 3D as something to buy into, to recognising that the full potential of DPC requires a deeper commitment.

Redesigning the value chain: why smart forecasting is only part of fashion’s future
As fashion enters a new era of constant uncertainty, smart forecasting and demand planning is a step in the right direction. But it needs to lead to a new model of production, too.
The Bill Of Process
The industry has shunned away from true traceability and thus from recognising (and accepting) responsibility for which processes took place in the name of speed and pricing. Today’s reality is that no longer can brands and retailers continue to ignore material choices along with their related processes that can lead to environmental issues.
Extended Reality: redefining fashion
There’s a well-known saying: “You can’t be in two places at once.” True …until now.
Plan for change and retain profitabilitiy
When it comes to the design/development decision making process, it’s important, even critical that decisions are completed in a timely manner and are linked to the development calendar milestones. The alternative is that you leave decisions to the last minute and then enter the Casino.
taking the right steps to choosing a PLM supplier
Companies must be careful and exercise great caution when taking first steps in choosing a PLM supplier and starting out on a PLM project, before they reach this point they must first stop and ask themselves many important questions for example:
Visual merchandising
There has been an increasing demand for PLM across the fashion industry lately, with many businesses jumping on board to take advantage of the efficiency savings and powerful new ways of working that the right solution can deliver.
What do customers want from a future PLM?
The first independent fashion PLM customer survey was a hot topic of discussion over the summer for fashion customers of PLM solutions, solution suppliers and industry educators, all eagerly awaiting the results of WhichPLM’s first report offering.
PLM helping to reduce your carbon footprint
Our style of living determines our carbon footprint; the choices we make and the habits we fall into have a major environmental impact. The ‘we’ I’m referring to here, in terms of trade, concerns conglomerates, small businesses, departments and divisions, right down to the individual who, through daily activities, has a negative effect on our climate.
Maturity level 1 PDM to level 5 PLM
Over the past six years the team at WhichPLM has continuously sought to improve the maturity performance levels of PLM; in our first survey, back in 2010, we put a wide range of questions to over 500 PDM/PLM customers, designed to help our analyst develop KPIs linked to varying levels of PLM implementation and adoption maturity.
