- The field’s most used 3D systems (and their specificities for underwear and beachwear design).

These questions and many others were addressed during the round table moderated by Francesca Spinetta, which included the participation of Roberto Tiburzi, ARENA Swimwear and Sportswear Category Manager, Rosa Kramer, founder of HYPERCURVE, a studio specializing in 3D technology applied to lingerie, Renate Eder, co-owner of VIZOO, the German start-up behind the field’s most widely used fabric digitization system and Nello Marelli, trend consultant and textile innovation expert.
