Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The predictions of style gurus and top international designers are given form in this study of the way new technology in fabrics and fashion is bringing together art, design, engineering and science. This book is a source for those professionals in design, fashion, art and architecture, but its results on the effects textiles are having on our lifestyles will also appeal to a much wider audience.
