Clothing design software mainly includes photoshop, illustrater and coreldraw, and CorelDRAW is the most commonly used one in clothing companies.

1. Photoshop

AdobePhotoshop is currently recognized as the best general graphic art design software. Developed and designed by Adobe. Its user interface is easy to understand, its function is perfect, and its performance is stable. Therefore, Photoshop is the first choice for almost all advertising, publishing and software companies. Its advantages are:

(1) It can conveniently select, edit, copy, cut and collage images, colors and shapes. Thus, clothing designers can idealize and adjust the obtained image data (such as fashion shows, fashion display pictures, etc.), and at the same time, they can also handle some images "for our own use", such as changing or adjusting clothing styles, fabrics, colors, accessories, etc. in some pictures, which can achieve a realistic effect without revealing traces.

(2) another powerful function of Photoshop is its "filter" (also called filter). Any form of graphics and images can generate other unexpected new visual effects after being processed by filters. At the same time, other functional modules of Photoshop, such as paths, channels, masks and layers, can also further process graphics and images, thus making the renderings of fashion designers show a certain personalized trend.

(3)Photoshop is also an important input platform, which can connect external devices such as scanners, PhotoCDs and digital cameras. Many important works and materials of fashion designers can be input and sorted through this platform, and processed by Photoshop tools.

3. Illustrator

Illustrator is an excellent vector graphic design software produced by ADOBE Company in the United States. It integrates graphics, image editing and processing, web animation, vector animation and other functions, and can meet various needs in graphic design.
