Summary

GarmentWeaver activates only garment-relevant schema branches before predicting an executable pattern from sketches and text.

Flat token sequences can entangle garment structure with local measurements, producing redundant pieces and poor simulation behavior. GarmentWeaver builds compact hierarchical targets, uses a pretrained vision-language model for multimodal design cues and adds feasibility-aware regularization. The authors report more accurate, executable patterns and better simulations than strong baselines. The system generates digital sewing specifications under its schema; the experiments do not establish manufacturing readiness for every fabric, body or design.
