Abstract
Additive Manufacturing (AM) is being used in the applications of dental, biomedical implants, aircraft, and tissue engineering as well as fashion. AM has an edge to provide greater design freedom to create intricate and complex designs that are otherwise difficult to fabricate using traditional methods. As a result, AM is being applied in the development of fashion products like apparels and jewellery and allows mass customisation. This paper presents an overview of the various AM technologies used for the manufacturing of fashion apparels and jewellery. The current state-of-the-art data capturing and modelling tools, as well as additional design procedures necessary for the design and fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) printed fashion products will be discussed. This paper also includes information on useful finishing technology for the application of fashion products as well as prospects of 3D printed fashion products in the near future.
