• Abstract: Reconstructing animatable 3D human avatars from a single image remains particularly challenging for loose garments, whose geometry and motion cannot be adequately represented by body-aligned topology and skinning. We present Forwardrobe, a feed-forward framework for reconstructing garment-aware Gaussian avatars from a single image. Forwardrobe explicitly separates clothing from the body in canonical Gaussian space and equips the garment layer with continuity-aware geometry and skinning initialization, pose-conditioned non-rigid deformation, and appearance adaptation. These designs improve garment reconstruction and visual quality during animation, particularly for skirts and dresses. The separated garment layer additionally forms an independently controllable 3D asset, enabling garment editing, transfer, and 3D virtual try-on. Experiments demonstrate improved garment reconstruction quality and greater flexibility in garment manipulation compared with existing single-image avatar reconstruction methods.

  We present Layered Gaussian Avatars (LayGA), a new representation that formulates body and clothing as two separate layers. Our representation is built upon the Gaussian map-based avatar for its excellent representation power of garment details. In the single-layer reconstruction stage, we propose a series of geometric constraints to reconstruct smooth surfaces. In the multi-layer fitting stage, we train two separate models to represent body and clothing and utilize the reconstructed clothing geometries as 3D supervision.

  We introduce AniDress, a novel method for generating animatable human avatars in loose clothes using very sparse multi-view videos. A pose-driven deformable neural radiance field conditioned on both body and garment motions is introduced, providing explicit control of both parts. Our method is able to render natural garment dynamics that deviate highly from the body and well to generalize to both unseen views and poses.

We show that our method can reconstruct high-quality dynamic garments with coherent surface details, which can be easily animated under unseen poses.

  Learning to reconstruct 3D garments is important for dressing 3D human bodies of different shapes in different poses. Previous works typically rely on 2D images as input, which however suffer from the scale and pose ambiguities. We propose a principled framework, Garment4D, that uses 3D point cloud sequences of dressed humans for garment reconstruction.

We show photorealistic animation output for three different actors, and demonstrate the advantage of our clothed-body avatars over single-layer avatars.
