decorated


Explanation:
A single feature on an item of clothing can be a 'decoration.' I would not use 'pattern,' as 'platziert' implies a single feature, in contrast to an overall pattern of the fabric.

placement or engineered print


Explanation:
A placement or engineered print is the controlled position of an artwork within a product. Different to a repeat print, which features continuous tiling of artwork. A placement print rellies on artwork done to the scale of a product and then being cut in a particular position to control the placement of a print.
