A talk by TECHstyler x Bottletop is path I could take further on in my final year. The panel spoke about 3D digital design tools allowing hyper-real design of both models and clothing.
Thinking in the future is very important for us to understand and each speaker had their own perspective on the subject and are pioneers in that industry. These tools can avoid the need for toxic and wasteful physical clothing prototyping and can allow presentation of fashion with a far reduced environmental impact.
