What Is Fashion Design Thinking

As 3D printing transitions from commercial manufacturing use to personal private use individuals will have the ability to print any design. Products can range from a pair of shoes to complicated engineering designs, life-saving devices, prosthetic limbs and weapons that pass airport security. In the future we will likely see printable medications and

This report aims to underling the key areas the Australian Fashion Industry need address, in order to show that it has a future in an ever competitive global economy.

There are a few pressing matters regarding the impact of 3D printing on society including security risks and accountability when a tragedy occurs as a result of manufactured items. However, 3D printing has a beneficial impact in different fields. One positive impact of 3D printing is the new industry software developers can pursue since there is a need to build and maintain user friendly software for 3D printing. 3D printing also reduces the time to necessary to

By the 21st century, the advancement in technology has forever changed the way clothing is made. “The impact of CAD software on everyday clothing is becoming more prevalent as the software is linked to 3D printing technology.” This saying, clothing has come to be an easy thing to come by and still is advancing. “Machines for home printing are becoming more affordable… the ability to create customized clothing is becoming more of a reality as technology evolves.” As technology evolves, it will impact the way people shop for clothes and how their clothes are

With manufacturing moving overseas, we should realize that with it moves the dyed chemical water. Countries such as Bangladesh dump their wastewater in ditches that can be see when driving to textile mills and manufacturing plants (Cline, 2012, pg. 123). With environmental forces such as global warming, we are overlooking the waste the fashion world is creating. Instead of donating to The Salvation Army or Goodwill, “a tremendous amount of clothing is in fact not getting recycled but getting trashed” which means consumers aren’t realizing where their used garments are really going (Cline, 2012, pg. 123). Cellulosic fibers seem to be environmentally friendly because they come from cotton, flax, and bamboo. Even though these fibers start off

Did a soldier ever think of printing his missing hand that was amputated while in combat? Or did that surgeon ever thought of printing that patient’s matching heart that’s been on the national organ donor list for the past two years? And how about printing the most want it toy for Christmas for your child? Well now you can, by using a 3-D modeling technology printing concept. 3-D (Three-Dimensional) modeling technology in the medical field has been an innovation since the 1980’s. This technology has come a long ways. 3-D modeling technology printing is a method of additive manufacturing and built-up technique where a three dimensional object is shaped by laying down consecutive layers of material to create an object in a 3-D aspect. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of companies providing personalized three dimensional printed models of objects that have been scanned and reduced to a 3-D shape with the assistance of computer software, and then printed to the customer’s requests. This technology has developed into many branches, in which has opened doors leading to a new form of imagery in the world of printing. While some may argue this technology may result in a trend of piracy and with its non-proprietary software, some individuals may gain profit by manufacturing counterfeit pharmaceutical products. Society should invest in the 3-D modeling technology concept as many individuals have been creating toys at home and

Have you ever lost a limb? Have you ever needed a new car part? If so, the marvel of 3D printing can deliver these things. The future has truly arrived today, almost any object we can think of can become reality through 3D printing. 3D printing is the process of making a physical object from a digital model by layering a material until it forms the object. 3D printing shows a lot of potential for both recreational and practical uses, and I believe will help shape the future of technology.

In spite of the considerable role that fashion designers and the entire fashion industry plays, designers are often unable to completely and comprehensively

The concept of 3D printing got a lot of businesses attention, from airplane and space industries to house appliance companies. Every business and industry is thinking of ways to utilise 3D printers to their own benefit, not just business and industries, also schools, governments and individual groups of people. 3D printing is an additive manufacturing technique whereby objects are printed layer by layer through a series of slices, they work in a similar way to normal desktop printers but instead of ink, the 3D printers use other ranges of material powders. All printers use CAD or drafting software that calculates each slice size and they determine exactly how each of them should be constructed to fit in

Why go to stores and spend lots of money buying toys, jewelry, cups and many other plastic utilities when you can only press one button and print them out for yourself. This futuristic idea is not only innovating the scientific and technological world, but it is also innovating modern day households. The possibilities of 3D printing are extremely captivating, making this one of the most exciting innovations in recent times. 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, makes three-dimensional solid objects from a digital model or command. To picture how this process works, 3D printers use an additive process, where adding layers of a successive material creates an object. Traditional machines, however, uses a subtractive process by

‘Fashion industry is characterised by short product life cycles, volatile and unpredictable demand, tremendous product variety, long and inflexible supply processes and a complex supply chain.’

Sustainability has become a major issue in the fashion industry. The global apparel industry has a large amount of social and environmental problems and the apparel industry is a dirty business that relies on water intensive methods and toxic chemicals within its factories. Fashion and textiles is known to be one of the most polluting industries in the world, following oil. Millions of gallons of wastewater from mills each year contain harsh chemicals. The clothing industry has a huge environmental impact, some of which include: industrial water pollution, production of fiber responsible for pesticide and insecticide. Another example is that it takes 700 gallons of water to produce enough cotton for

As you may know fashion designers create anything that is part of a garment for men, women, and children. They understand the needs of their clients and create attractive, functional garments and accessories. When designing they must keep a close watch on fit, style, color, texture, size, and material. Designing any outfit starts with sketching and original idea on paper or on computer programs. Then shaping the patterns pieces which make the garment. The pieces are then drawn in actual size on paper and cut out on a rough material. These pieces are

Technological advances during the past decade have opened many new doors for the Textile and Apparel industries, especially in the area of rapid prototyping and related activities.

This work is an introduction to the fashion industry of Pakistan which has made quite a lot of progress in just a few years. Ten to fifteen years from now, this industry was still unknown to actually exist to the masses. Later with the formation of fashion councils and education centers under the enthusiastic few who wanted to make a difference and promulgate this very institution of fashion, did the very fashion industry took its concrete contour from the old tailor culture that formerly existed. Today it is one of the most progressing industries in the country.
