COMPETITION ENTRY / 2026

CLO × Vivienne Westwood

CLO3D / PATTERN DEVELOPMENT / UNREAL ENGINE / METAHUMAN

Six corsetry-led looks designed in CLO3D for a Vivienne Westwood heritage brief, then dressed on a custom MetaHuman and shot in Unreal Engine.

BEGINCLO

01 / OVERVIEW

A competition entry asking for heritage-inspired garments built from Vivienne Westwood's brand identity in CLO3D. Research started with the history of the house, then moved to vintage and Victorian dress — silhouette, corsetry and the way tartan was worn against lace.

Silhouettes were developed and patterned in CLO3D, with fabrics and trims selected for each look. The finished garments were exported onto a customised MetaHuman and photographed in an Unreal Engine environment.
