Know before usingAn orientation rather than a completed product record; it does not supply a universal format, licensed standard content, measurements, tolerances, construction settings, labels, approvals, compliance conclusion, or product-release authority.The page does not publish price and its product-quality, error-prevention, data-loss, and fit statements are vendor claims. Capabilities vary across Essential, Classic, Expert, 3D, and add-ons. Confirm licenses, modules, support, system and file requirements, then pilot approved blocks, grade rules, supplier reopen, material and mannequin data, plot or cut outputs, and risk-appropriate physical fit and production checks.The result is a numerical unit conversion, not a new measurement or conformance decision; it does not establish sample or lot representativeness, significant digits, drape, warmth, opacity, thickness, stretch, strength, shrinkage, durability, sewability, end use, target, or tolerance.

Source and review
What the source establishesThe guide cites current ISO sources for documented-information, garment-measurement, stitch, and seam boundaries plus current U.S. FTC textile and care-labeling guidance; it explicitly separates those authorities from product-specific technical and market decisions.Lectra's current Modaris page identifies version 2025.2 as the latest listed release and describes a one- to three-year subscription with two releases per year. The modular range covers base-pattern creation and modification, grading and industrialization, native-file supplier work, pattern libraries, synchronized 2D and 3D prototypes, configurable or imported mannequins, and separate conversion and consumption-estimate add-ons.The calculator uses the NIST SP 811 Appendix B.8 conversion from avoirdupois ounces per square yard to kilograms per square metre and links to a source-reviewed fabric mass record for method, sampling, conditioning, and product controls.
