The industry standard for 2D/3D pattern-making, grading, and virtual prototyping.
Lectra Modaris is a sophisticated CAD/CAM solution engineered for the global fashion and apparel industry. As of 2026, it serves as the architectural backbone for pattern development, utilizing a hybrid 2D and 3D environment to synchronize design modifications in real-time. The platform excels in technical pattern construction, complex grading, and material consumption optimization. Its technical architecture has evolved to integrate 'Lectra as a Service' (SaaS), enabling cloud-based collaborative workflows and seamless connectivity with Kubix Link (PLM). Modaris leverages advanced geometric engines for precision grading across vast size ranges, ensuring consistency in fit regardless of garment complexity. Its 3D simulation module utilizes high-fidelity fabric physics to reduce physical prototyping by up to 50%, significantly shortening the time-to-market. Positioned as an enterprise-grade solution, Modaris remains the benchmark for luxury houses and mass-market retailers seeking to digitize their value chain and implement sustainable manufacturing practices through precise fabric nesting and digital sample approvals.
