Fashion Technology: Fashion Clothes Are Printed By 3D.

3D about technology has unlimited possibilities.

Whether it's musical instruments or toys, or robots and mechanical parts, 3D printers can create almost anything.

Today, fashion designers and fashion enthusiasts are also catching up with this wave.

As early as 2010, fashion designers had already used 3D printing materials.

But until recently, designers broke the technical limitations of 3D printing.

3D Printshow content curator Faith Robinson (Faith Robinson) said: "3D printing parts are limited to printer printable materials.

In view of this, designers are often limited to the ultimate visual effect.

Recently, due to the introduction of hybrid materials and mixed color printing technology, 3D printing fashion design is no longer rigid, white 3D printing nylon parts look more "real".

Some designers, such as XYZ Workshop in Australia, have even provided 3D design works downloading service.

This means that as long as you have a 3D printer, you can customize and create your own clothes.

3D printer is becoming more and more popular, and the price is gradually decreasing. 3D printing will undoubtedly become the next frontier of the fashion industry.

Robinson said: "with 3D scanning technology, 3D printing can provide personalized fashion services to the greatest extent.

We need to re recognize the Haute Couture. "

In the fashion world,

Designer Ellis Iris Van Herpen is a pioneer in the use of 3D printing technology.

In 2010, fan lotus published a series of fashions on the theme of "Crystallization Collection" (glass crystal water clothes), which used 3D printing technology.

In January 2013, van Heben used the laser printing technology of Belgian company Materialise to design a complex, lace like dress.

In March 2014, fan lotus and Materialise collaborated to design the 3D print skirt. In order to show glossiness, the surface of the skirt was coated with silicon.

In 2013, 3D printing company Shapeways and designer Francis Bisti (Francis Bitonti) show this dress, the model is American actress Dita Vantes (Dita Von Teese).

The dress is made up of 17 netting parts, with 3000 joints and more than 12000 SWAROVSKI crystals.

At the beginning, Francis Bisti worked with students to build the 3D print skirt together, which is called "Bristle Dress".

The skirt is made of plucent flexible PLA filament. This fashion design has been open source.

So as long as you own a MakerBot printer, you can download the design and customize your own skirt.

XYZ Workshop designed the dress called InBloom Dress. The skirt consisted of 191 lace like PLA filament panels, which were printed for nearly 450 hours. The current design has been downloaded for free.

XYZ Workshop also uses 3D printing technology to design accessories, such as women's handbags.

XYZ Workshop also provides free download service for handbag design.

XYZ Workshop's designer, Kae Woei Lim, said: "let's customize all kinds of prints for fashion clothes. This is a personalized way of self expression through fashion."

XYZ Workshop also designed this watch. The watch is divided into two parts, namely, the watchband and the dial, and the two parts are finally glued together.

Designer Gabrielle Ella Gabriela also used 3D printing technology to design a series of hats. Ligenza

The designer said, "using 3D to print such cutting-edge technology, I can create a traditional hat that is impossible to finish the design."

Some design companies, such as Pringle in Scotland, incorporate 3D printing elements into existing designs.

In fact, the trend of 3D printing is not limited to high-end fashion.

In 2013, Vitoria's Secret endorsement model, Lindsay Ellingson, was made of Shapeways printers with a pair of wings.

The wings are printed with nylon plastic and decorated with SWAROVSKI crystal.

Lady Gaga is also dressed in 3D print dress, including Studio XO designed long skirt Parametric Sculpture Dress.

This skirt is made from Mammoth curable printer. Mammoth is currently the world's largest 3D printer.
