While working at Colora SA, one of Greece's largest fabric printing factory, I was tasked with redesigning the model 'doll' templates used to present our pattern collections to our esteemed customers. Previous mock up models were badly pixelated and the doll was a plain black figure, making really hard on the eyes and rather tiring.
As we also had a big portion of our clientele representing the children's clothing market I decided to add some kids models too. The templates were designed so that the print can cover just the top, the bottoms or both as a set depending on what kind of clothing the customer was planning to manufacture and promote, giving it a better representation and example of what the final product might look.
First illustration with the suggested mock-up areas (up) and original artwork with extra suggested mock up examples in various patterns for the doll template (below).

Copying, editing or reselling is strictly forbidden by Colora SA and their respective clients, and it will be persecuted legally if needed be.
There was also the suggested idea of the single girl illustration instead of the group which can be seen below with various pattern examples.

Suggested templates, left (bottom) focuses mostly on the print, right one is also showcasing the pattern's colour palette (which could be used as reference for the printing department to make sure they get the right printed colour results).

The final chosen template, where the figures are enlarged and centred to be in the main focus, and the print presented in a border frame type area.
With this specific illustration we could also have many different parts of the clothes and accessories used for the pattern mock-ups, and even flat colour some parts to bring the template closer to the client company's needs and how they could style them better.
The templates were used for a short while but were abandoned as the company was selected to receive a new 3D presentation program funded by the Greek government.
All rights were transferred back to me and will soon be available online for purchase.
