Presentation Slides 5 & 6


Slide 5


The underlying question is how will our trend influence design?
More people means more improvement in design, but less resources means that we have to look towrads sustainable fabrics and new technology to keep design progressing. We came across new innovative developments in textiles such as self - healing polymers, which reiterates the idea of viruses spreading and dividing. Catalytic clothing is another development  where it traps polluted air and discoloursthe fabric. Imprioving thew  wearers health and well being. There is also a eletromagnetic hypersensitive fabric that reflects smog.  These are all developments that people do not know about,  but our trend will pin point these new inventions and bring them to light.



Slide 6



We put together examples of how we think our trend could be translated. We felt that aspects we wanted to refer to were elements surrounding layering of fabrics and busy clashing prints. Both layering, hectic busy prints reflect the theme virus; spreading, multiplying and growing.
