3D Technology Printing Applied To Garment Industry

< p > clothes, < a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_x.asp" > shoes < /a >, bags, jewelry, when people's body can be printed through 3D technology, fashion industry will be penetrated by this technology, but high fashion is firmly rejected.

< /p >

P 3D reports from the British media that by 2016, the value of the global 3D printing industry is expected to exceed US $3 billion 100 million, a large part of which will come from the fashion industry.

< /p >

The designers of P and the keen sense of smell have already begun to play this technology.

In March of this year, Nike released a soccer boot containing 3D printing technology.

The application of this new technology means that Nike can make some changes in the shorter time frame according to the prototype of the boots.

This allows the design updates that took several months to complete in a matter of days.

And this boot is lighter than previous design and can reduce sprint time.

< /p >

< p > in fact, in the fashion industry, designers of shoes and jewelry have absorbed this new technology faster.

"They are closer to product design and architecture. In these two areas, 3D technology has been used for some time," said Philip Delamore, director of digital studios at the London Fashion Institute. "Especially footwear designers, they are very excited about 3D printing technology, because that means they can provide truly unique things, and they do not need to buy a ready-made heel (model)."

< /p >

< p > self styled Iris Van Herpen, the last fashion designer who touches the Internet, has now become a typical example of a href= http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp.

She created an incredible design, so that superstars Lady Gaga's stylist would take the initiative.

Less than P, the attraction of 3D technology is intuitive.

"In the past, I had to have three dimensional imagination in my mind, but to turn it into a physical object, I needed to pform it into a two-dimensional form, for example, a painting."

Van Herpen said, "this way of doing things is too old-fashioned. With the help of 3D printing technology, I can instantly pform the 3D picture in my mind into a 3D model in the computer and print it out."

< /p >

< p > 3D printing technology also makes Van Herpen no longer constrained by traditional manufacturing technology, and can achieve more complex design.

Ellis Van Hoben, the famous designer of a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_p.asp" > Holland, should also have a deep understanding of it. Through the 3D printer of Stratasys, she designed and manufactured bare boots with roots as inspiration, complex structure and full of geometric impact, and brought them to the stage of the recent Paris fashion week.

< /p >

"P >" and in the pursuit of personalized and customized fashion industry, 3D technology makes it easier for designers to meet these needs of consumers. They only need to make some changes in the 3D model of computers, and even consumers can design their own.

From this perspective, as a tool, 3D is a plus for the fashion industry. "

Anonymous people engaged in the design work said in an interview.

< /p >

< p > so selling 3D printing glasses is not a rare thing. A company is brewing a plan: hoping to use 3D technology to enable consumers to wear self-designed sunglasses.

< /p >

< p > 3D technology can easily customize products, making it an ideal tool for fashion industry, because in the fashion world, everyone has unique shape and different taste.

But this technology needs to penetrate the fashion industry and be widely used to overcome some obstacles.

< /p >

< p > "the biggest obstacle is that people in the fashion world do not use computers very much."

Janne Kyttanen, the designer of Liberty Corporation, joked.

This is obviously aimed at designers who are used to painting paper manuscripts, and there is also a generation gap problem.

"Five years ago, most of our students had no idea about 3D technology," Delamore said. "But now they regard it as another tool.

< /p >

< p > it is no wonder that fashion designers are aware of 3D technology.

Of course, it also involves other obstacles.

Fashion designers focus on materials. They feel the material, see how it hangs and how they swing with the movement of the human body.

"3D technology is designed for engineers, not designers. Initially it comes from automotive, aerospace and other industries, and the development of materials is also for engineers' applications."

The problem with this problem is the limited tone of the material.

< /p >

< p > but there are bold designers trying to combine them with high fashion.

Before the birth of fan lotus's root shoes, she made a series of women's clothing through Stratasys's 3D printer, which shook the whole fashion world.

"When a technology only needs to scan the body, it can make more clothes than the tailor's handwork. There is no seam yet. You can't say it has nothing to do with the fashion world."

These designers sigh.

< /p >

< p > but in Delamore's view, consumers are not yet ready to wear printed clothing.

"Designers are using 3D printing technology to create iconic things, but it is not yet a consumer level technology.

We are used to wearing natural materials, even if we are wearing nylon, but what we expect is the type, texture and quality of the wrinkles. 3D technology has a long way to go. "

Delamore thinks.

< /p >

Less than P, opponents say that 3D technology will only penetrate the fashion industry in the future, and will never be a high-end fashion, because high-end fashion can not find something that can replace the present.

In the luxury world of Pyramid, apart from the top customization, the world's other luxury product lines have almost become the machine's assembly line. The spirit of the advanced custom craftsmanship and the origin of luxury goods has become the only gloss of luxury brands.

< /p >

< p > the industry also said: "it is not optimistic that this technology will be applied to high fashion. Consumers who enjoy advanced customization still want the traditional tailor to make it carefully."
