In this project I learned how to utilize OptiTex software to reflect my skills in integrating engineered textile designs with texture mapping. After illustrating motifs to create into a repeating pattern in 3 different colorways I uploaded my textile pattern to my dress design in OptiTex and created a 3D showcase of my work.
