How to match CLO 3D avatar with your body measurements-updated 7.1 version

Introduction

If you're an avid user of CLO 3D, you know that customizing your avatar can significantly enhance your design experience. With the recent update (version 7.1), this process has become even easier. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to customize your avatar based on body size and shape, ensuring a perfect fit for your garments.

Step-by-Step Customization

1. Open an Avatar: Start by selecting an avatar. In this example, we’ll choose the “Female Version 2.”

2. Gather Customer Measurements: To achieve an accurate representation, collect essential measurements from your customer:

   • Weight
   • Bust measurement
   • Waist measurement
   • Hip measurement
   • Height

3. Access the Avatar Editor:

   • Navigate to the Avatar section and select Avatar Editor.

4. Input Height and Weight:

   • In the editor, locate the section labeled "Total Body."
   • Enter the height in inches.
   • For weight, select the drop-down menu and choose “Weight”. You can opt for pounds as your working unit and input the weight accordingly.

5. Set Body Shape:

   • Select a body shape that closely resembles your customer’s physique. Options typically include:
     • Straight
     • Round
     • Pear-shaped
     • Inverted triangle
     • Hourglass
     • Default
   • For instance, if your customer has a more rounded shape, choose the "Round" option.

6. Adjust Measurements:

   • CLO 3D will automatically generate default bust, waist, and hip measurements based on the input weight, height, and selected body shape. In many cases, these generated measurements are accurate.
   • However, you can further tailor these values by entering precise measurements such as “37 inches” for bust or “34 inches” for waist.

7. Finalize Your Avatar: Once you've customized the avatar to match your customer's measurements, you’re ready to use it for your garment designs. This streamlined process is not only easy but also enhances the accuracy of your designs.

With these steps completed, you now have a custom avatar that effectively reflects your customer, allowing for a more personalized and precise design experience in CLO 3D.
