(Filed Under Technology News). Lectra, a leader in integrated technology solutions, has announced the launch of a new version of their pattern making software Modaris.

According to the company, Modaris has been the industry standard for over a decade and is used by the biggest names in fashion worldwide. The new version, entitled Modaris V6R1, allows apparel professionals to “fully optimize their product ranges and associated patterns,” said the company.

The updates will allow professionals to develop more patterns in approximately 20 percent less time. “Modaris V6R1 is more user-friendly and offers higher performance, along with increased accuracy and speed at every stage of the model development cycle, including the creation and finalization of patterns, industrialization, grading, verification and pre-production,” said the company. “A new layer interface for pattern construction ensures better quality and accuracy and reduces both the risk of error and the number of checks necessary.”

Additionally, Modaris ExpertPro, a part of the Modaris range, has been optimized to facilitate speedy creation of product ranges and patterns for all garment types including lingerie, suits, men and women’s apparel, children’s wear, swimwear and more, said the company.

“Modaris ExpertPro V6R1 enables us to save a considerable amount of time during our pattern ‘fine-tuning’ phase,” said Claude Marchand, head of Lise Charmel’s internal Lectra services department, a French brand of high-end luxury lingerie. “Despite the increasing complexity of our models, the risk of error has been even further reduced, along with the number of verifications necessary. This is achieved through an improved pattern structuring system and a reduced possibility of mistakes when making modifications.”
