Most of the fibres and fabrics developed are not useful for the fashion industry although there are a few like the Photonic ones. Which sound extremaly exciting, the ability to change the appearance of the garment would extend its life span. This would only really be beneficial if it could change allot, to last throughout multiple seasons. They would also be very good for basic clothes, where you could change the colour of a plain singlet to match your outfit. That way you would not need to buy similar clothes in different colours, cutting down consumption.
Although as the fashion industry is forever reinventing itself, the issue of trends arise. These high tech fashion designs may just be in for a couple of season and then a natural movement might become stronger,(possibly like the art nouveau movement after the industrial revolution) then what do we do with all of the smart garments we were going to wear for years and years to come?
