PART 2
In preparation for the Functional Fabric Fair - Fall 2023 for collaboration with Michelle Rose and the Stuktur Salon, I prepared a presentation using the same brand assets that Stuktur was using. It featured the use of the marbled graphic for the background. I just loved the colors so I used for the same sweater pattern as in Part 1.

In a creative exploratory session, the sweater evolved to a dress. Features of the Style3D software explored were:
