3D Is Dead. Long Live 3D | What Fashion Got Wrong (and Right)

Описание: Is 3D dead in fashion — or has it finally grown up?

In this candid and thought-provoking panel from PI Apparel New York 2025, industry leaders unpack the real state of 3D in fashion. Moving beyond hype, the discussion explores where 3D has delivered value, where it has fallen short, and why the future of digital product creation depends more on people, process, and judgment than tools alone.
