Disappearing dress codes, customers as designers and wearable
technology; in recent years the production and function of clothing
has undergone massive change. New manufacturing technologies have
brought bespoke design within reach of many consumers for the first
time. Miniature sensors can turn ordinary garments into smart
devices. And blurring gender roles and class distinctions point the
way towards a more fluid approach to clothing, fashion and design.
The Future of Clothing offers a critical introduction to these
developments from an interdisciplinary perspective, engaging with
their implications for the clothing industry and related fields.
You'll learn how mass-personalization impacts the luxury market,
the effects of automation on craftsmanship and how AI design may
affect individual style choices. Contributors include fashion
historian, author and broadcaster Amber Butchart, adventurer,
ecologist and head of the Sculpt the Future Foundation David de
Rothschild, and best-selling author Yuval Noah Harari. There are
also 8 exclusive illustrations by Salvador Dali, depicting the
surrealist master’s extraordinary vision of how fine-tailored
clothing might evolve in the 21st century. Together they form a
truly unique guide to the future of this most creative industry.
