Abstract

The purpose of 3D technology is to transform the most challenging concepts into reality. In Fashion, 3D printing is continually evolving with the designers’ interest and professionals in technology. It opens new avenues of fascinating and endless possibilities for fashion designers. In this process the object is created layer by layer without any mould, based on its design which was developed through Computer Aided Design (CAD) and use powder particles materials, like plastics, metals, and resins etc. 3D printing offers different perspectives in almost every field of life. This innovation has impacting the new industrial revolution and creating vibes, in majorly all the industries. Including high fashion apparels and could change the future of both Haute Couture and Pret. Regarding three dimensional printing there are various ways and technologies have been developed by the professionals, but this outrageous technology is having an obstacle in fashion apparels, like materials, which are mainly synthetics and lacking the natural properties to produce desired silhouettes.
