It was super exciting to moderate the textile technology panel at the latest Première Vision New York show, held January 13-14 at Pier 92 in Manhattan.
The subject, "Technology and How it Will Serve Fashion in the Future," was led by panelists that included tech wiz Amanda Parkes and representatives from Under Armour, Polartec, CityZen Sciences and Concordia Fabrics, as well as designers Zaid Affas and Bjorn Bengtsson.
The 90 minute seminar touched on wearable technology, smart clothing and 3D printed textiles. An interesting talk indeed!
Thanks to all the panelists and to PV New York for such a strong and interesting discussion. Check out PV New York's website, premierevisiony in the coming days for my report on the show.
