E4FT, UAL, Politecnico, University of Boras & ERASMUS+ together developed a Fashion-Tech, Education and Research Benchmarking Report in 2017, which features some interesting summarization of how FashionTech has developed over the years. Despite the 3-year delay, I found extremely valuable information in the report that answer the following 10 questions (in the first half):
- How did FashionTech evolve over time? (pg 13–15)
- How has Technology impacted the Fashion Design process? (pg 18)
- How did 3D modelling make its place in Fashion? (pg 18–19)
- How do personalization & technology go hand in hand? (pg 21)
This talks of 3D scanning & 4D printing. - How has wearable clothing evolved over the years? (pg 24–26)
- Why are smart fabrics preferred to embedded technology? (pg 27)
- How have Fashion Brands incorporated AR & VR? (pg 30–33)
- How have Fashion Universities contributed to FashionTech development? (pg49)
- What fields makeup FashionTech? (pg 51)
10. What is the basic methodology of design in FashionTech? (pg 51–55)
