This excitingly illustrated book, written by two experts on revolutionary textiles, describes the new fabrics (including those made of metal, glass or ceramic yarns) and their amazing properties. It explains the new design processes for making clothes that are 'smart', seamless, have clever venting systems or mimic the carapace of an insect. It also includes the latest fashions that owe their stylish futuristic looks to the innovations of sportswear. For the first time, it is the fabric and the technology that make the trend. The reference section includes a glossary of technical terms and a directory of designers and manufacturers. This is essential reading for design professionals as well as for fashion and sports fans.
