1. A system comprising:
a plurality of first garments of a first base template, wherein each of the first garments is an assembled garment made from fabric panels of a woven material that are sewn together using thread, and the assembled garment is washed according to a first base wash to obtain a first base finish;
a plurality of second garments of a second base template, wherein each of the second garments is an assembled garment made from fabric panels of a woven material that are sewn together using thread, the assembled garment is washed according to a second base wash to obtain a second base finish, and the second base finish is different from the first base finish;
an ordering tool, accessible to a user via a Web browser, comprising a digital design tool, wherein inputs to the digital design tool comprise a selected base template from a plurality of base templates comprising the first base template and the second base template, and a selected finishing pattern from a plurality of finishing patterns based on laser input files, an output of the digital design tool comprises a preview tool that displays a preview image of the selected finishing pattern on the selected base template, the ordering tool generates a user order corresponding to the selected finishing pattern on the selected base template, and the preview image is generated by a method comprising
generating an adjusted base image from the selected base template without the selected finishing pattern,
generating a pattern mask based on a laser input file associated with the selected finishing pattern,
for a pixel at a pixel location of the preview image, obtaining a first contribution by combining a first value associated with a pixel of the pattern mask at a pattern mask pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the preview image and a value of a pixel of the selected base template at a base template pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the preview image,
for the pixel at the pixel location of the preview image, obtaining a second contribution by combining a second value associated with the pixel of the pattern mask at the pattern mask pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the preview image and a value of a pixel of the adjusted base image at an adjusted base image pixel location that corresponds to the pixel location of the preview image, and
combining the first contribution and second contribution to obtain a combined value for the pixel at the pixel location of the preview image, wherein when the pixel of the preview image is displayed, a color of the pixel corresponds to the combined value; and
a laser finishing facility, coupled to a network, wherein an input to the laser finishing facility comprises the user order from the ordering tool received through the network, and based on a laser input file associated with the user order, a laser removes selected amounts of material from the surface of a garment of the selected base template.
