Possibilities of e-business in the Croatian fashion industry

Requirements for economic globalisation of fashion, as well as the whole of textile, economy dictate the changes in approach in the processes of designing, construction, manufacture and distribution of textile fabrics and garment. Current traditional approach, economically and technologically outdated and not competitive in today's market, has to be guided towards a computerised approach of digitised textiles and computer-designed virtual textile materials, in order to preserve production and penetrate global market. The shift into the area of digital textile engineering and virtual textile economy can be made using sophisticated universal or specific job-oriented 2D and 3D computer graphic and numeric software applications, such as patented software solutions: automatic computer-aided anthropometry ŤErSABAť, computer-aided biomechanical animation of virtual 3D characters ŤVatoSABAť, computer-aided organisation, control and managing manufacturing processes in garment industry ŤElephant ProSABAť computer-aided simulation and visualisation of e-textiles and garment ŤCloSABAť, and the like. Designing, manufacturing and 3D visualisation of virtual fabrics, as well as automatic computerised determination of the customers' bodily measures all ask for two segments in the computerised approach, nonexistent in the traditional one: design and construction of a 3D model of a person and construction of a 3D model of the article of clothing in question. It is a pre-requisite of intelligent digital development, manufacture, promotion and automated commerce of e-fabrics and articles of clothing in the virtual environment of global computer networks.
