How to manufacture Nanotechnology textiles is the third post in the series Nanotechnology in the fashion industry and discuss how nanotechnology is applied to the textile fibres. One of the most important and advanced parts of developing garments is surface design. A considerable amount of research is taking place in the field of surface modification of textiles with a view to improving properties and processes

The second post in the series on nanotechnology in fashion discuss material properties at nanoscale, self-assembly and what is top down and bottom up nanomanufacturing? Follow the new series on the fascinating prefix nano in the fashion world.

What is nanotechnology in fashion? Is a new series of posts discussing nanotechnology in the textile industry? The mission is to provide quality information for those who are not so familiar with the prefix of nano and its terminology.

Eco-Fashion Encyclopedia updated with 36 illustrated terms January. Eco-Fashion Encyclopedia is an integrated part of The Denim Encyclopedia and Diagram Library. The Encyclopedia contains more than 1200 illustrated terms on fashion design in the sustainable era

21st centuries seek restorative solutions for the planet. The sustainable design process needs to seek to be restorative of the planet rather than destructive, reverse impacts, eliminate externalities and increase natural capital by supporting the biophysical functions provided for by nature.

Furthermore, they pioneered and explored the musical collaboration ship across genre and importance of MC and DJ relationship.

Design with nature discusses the Permaculture design framework. Nature is not served by rigid laws, but by rhythmical, reciprocal processes, this must be kept in mind. We need to re-discover cycles, pulsation and subtler transmissions of nature energies that actually science took away because of its materialistically based methodology

The natural step is a framework for sustainable design and the fifth post in a series that aims to discuss the different framework and ways to approach for sustainable fashion design. The natural step method with is rooted in a scientific an approach on how to solve complex problems; system thinking.

The previous ways of designing, manufacturing and product consumption since the industrial revolution has failed and caused tremendous damage. Product Lifecycle assessment is the fourth post in a series that aims to discuss the different approaches and framework for sustainable fashion design that can make a difference.

Fast fashion biggest enemy is efficiency, sustainability, and preservation; fast fashion mission is to move clothes rapidly in order to continue cyclical consumption. Whereof sustainability is slowing down the cycle. H&M communicate heavily their green profile, however, is it green-washing?

Cradle to cradle an approach and framework for sustainable design. This is the third post in a series that aims to discuss the different approaches and framework for sustainable fashion design. Previous posts on nature capitalism and biomimicry.

Biomimicry as nature builds it is the second post in a series whereof we discuss the different design tools for sustainable fashion, to give an introduction to these frameworks advantages and limitations. Read more.
