Abstract
Some key problems facing the clothing sector are explored in terms of the possibilities emerging from the principles of biomimetics. An overview is presented of the clothing sector including design process and product requirements and a brief description of biomimetic design and development methods is given. Opportunities, key issues and future trends for biomimetic innovation in the clothing industry are explored. Biomimetics can help improve the ecological footprint of the sector while inspiring innovative design through clever use of materials and structures. The framework for biomimetic innovation is focused on the functional aspect of clothing and not on the aesthetic.
