Question 1

Do I need prior experience with CLO?

Accepted Answer

No. This workshop is designed for beginners and people with some pattern-making experience. No prior CLO experience is required.

Question 2

Do I need pattern-making experience?

Accepted Answer

Some familiarity with pattern making will be helpful, but you do not need to be advanced.

Question 3

What should I bring?

Accepted Answer

Bring a laptop. If you already have a garment idea, you can also bring reference images, graphics, fabric ideas, cut lines, or an existing T-shirt or hoodie concept.

Question 4

Do I need to come with a finished concept?

Accepted Answer

No. You can bring something you are already working on or start from scratch during the workshop.

Question 5

What will I leave with?

Accepted Answer

The goal is for each participant to leave with a pattern file that can move into the manufacturing process.

Question 6

Will there be individual help?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The workshop is limited to 10 participants so BonBon can answer questions and provide individual guidance throughout the session.

Question 7

Do I need to download CLO3D before the workshop?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but wait until you receive our pre-event instructions. CLO offers a two-week trial, so we’ll send download and setup guidance shortly before the workshop to help you make the most of that trial period.

Question 8

Is the workshop free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Workshop 01 is free to attend, but registration is required and space is limited to 10 participants.

Question 9

Where is the workshop?

Accepted Answer

The workshop will be held at the Historic Core Business Improvement District office in Downtown Los Angeles. The full address is listed on this event page.

Question 10

Can I attend if I’m not a fashion designer?

Accepted Answer

If you are interested in pattern making or developing a garment concept, the workshop may still be a good fit. The session is built around hands-on garment development rather than professional experience level.

Question 11

What happens if the workshop fills up?

Accepted Answer

Once the 10 spots are filled, additional registrants can join the waitlist.

Question 12

Is there parking?

Accepted Answer

There is a paid lot right next door to our office in the Spring Arts Tower. Otherwise, there is street parking available.
