Textiles 2.0. How Science Is Redefining Future Fashion: Materials and Technologies
Fashion and science are increasingly going hand in hand. Modern materials and fabrics are not just a matter of design, but the result of scientific research and engineering developments. Biological fabrics, nanomaterials, and 3D printing are changing the very nature of clothing. In the face of climate challenges and limited resources, the industry is experimenting with materials and technologies. According to Eco Fibers Market Research, the market for eco-friendly fibers reached $52.8 billion in 2022 and is projected to double by 2032. The BRICS+ countries are becoming new centers of fashionable science, where prospects for international cooperation are opening up.
