Garment Particles: A 2D–3D Symmetric Garment Representation for Generation and Editing

Official checkpoints for Garment Particles, a framework for garment design spanning intuitive creation from high-level intent (text, image, sketch) to complex low-level editing across 2D sewing patterns and 3D draped geometry.

Overview

Garment Particles uses a 5D point-cloud representation to jointly encode 2D sewing patterns and 3D geometry. This representation enables Garment Particles Flow (GPF), a rectified flow framework that supports intuitive generation from high-level inputs (text, images, sketches) and various editing operations on 2D sewing patterns and 3D geometries.

Installation

To use these checkpoints, clone the official repository and install the dependencies:

conda create -n interact_garment python=3.10
conda activate interact_garment
pip install torch torchvision
pip install -r src/requirements.txt
export PYTHONPATH=$PWD/src:$PYTHONPATH

Sample Usage (Inference)

Download the checkpoints into src/checkpoints/ and run the inference script from the src directory.
