Abstract
Developments in clothing production technologies have been rapid and significant in two areas. The first concerns sew-free technologies, primarily adhesive bonding of seams. The technology innovations have affected many markets, but primarily lingerie and sportswear. This chapter considers the drivers for adoption of these technologies and the machinery used to achieve welded seams. The other area concerns three-dimensional (3D) body scanning and the potential for integrating scan data with 3D CAD and work on the fit of garments. The chapter provides an overview of recent literature and a critical discussion of the issues emerging from these technologies.
