Smart and Modern Textiles
This is a minefield of confusion and inaccurate information.
You need to be able to differentiate between textile materials which are
smart, and those which are technical/modern.
A smart material is defined as one which is able to react to external
stimulus / changes in the environment without human intervention.

You don’t have to be Katy Perry
to electrify the red carpet,
whether literally, figuratively, or
both. The wearable-technology
wizards at CuteCircuit have
unveiled ready-to-wear versions
of the label’s scene-stealing
creations, including a kneelength interpretation of Perry’s
LED-studded Met Gala gown
from 2010. Much like the
original, the K-Dress features
hundreds of rainbow-colored
LEDs tucked within handpleated folds of silk chiffon and
taffeta. At the command of a
built-in USB controller, the lights
flash and strobe in a pattern of
your choosing, lasting up to two
hours on a single charge.

When dry, the coats are monochromatic in colour with white flower motifs. When exposed to

Diana Eng has recently released a set of
beautiful scarves inspired by maths and, of
course, technology.
Light and airy in appearance, my personal
favourite is the Fibonacci Scarf knit using
the Fibonacci number pattern. The delicacy
of the web-like scarf is nicely balanced with
a deep saturated plum hue.
The thermochromatic Jack Frost scarf is
more graphic in nature. When temerature
drops below 65° F, the snowflake patterns
on the scarf magically appear.
Although varying dramatically in aesthetics,
technology is the common thread in the
smart scarf mini collection. The collection is
now available via Diana Eng's online store.

You've probably seen water-repellant textiles where droplets of water
miraculously bubble upon contact with the fabric. You may even own a
pair of moisture-wicking workout pants. Smart fabrics have slowly made
their way into the consumer market primarily in fitness wear but the
potentials of using smart textiles with such fantastical capabilities still
remains relatively unexplored.
Marisa Ranalli's "Under the Surface"
garment was inspired by sea
creatures — jellyfish, urchins and
even puffer fish— and their unique
self-defense mechanisms.
Ranalli incorporated nitinol
"spines", felted in wool, into a
wafty, hand-painted two-piece
dress that involuntarily reacts when
the wearers "personal space is
invaded."
Detail of nitinol "spines"
The back and shoulder area of the
dress have been designed with
"touch sensors" (looks like
conductive thread) that, when
touched, trigger the nitinol spines
on the front to respond.

Linda Worbin is a doctoral candidate in Textiles and Interaction Design at
the Swedish School of Textiles in Boras, Sweden.
For the past several years, her work has focused on smart and interactive
textiles developing beautiful thermochromic textile displays to
electroluminescent pillows and textiles.

What Is The Future Of Fabric? These Smart Textiles Will Blow Your Mind
I recently had the pleasure of meeting with Rebeccah Pailes-Friedman, an adjunct associate professor at
Pratt Institute as well as an author and researcher on smart textiles and wearable technologies.
With a background in active sportswear design working as Design Director at Fila USA, Champion, and
Nike’s Starter Division, she really understands the meaning of function and how clothing is meant to
work with our bodies, not just sit on top of them.
When we think of clothing, we usually just think of it as something we wear to provide coverage, convey
our sense of style and protect us from the environmental elements.
But, the future of clothing as we know it is about to change in a big way, and smart textiles are paving
the way for this change.
Smart textiles are fabrics that have been developed with new technologies that provide added value to
the wearer.
Rebeccah states that “what makes smart fabrics revolutionary is that they have the ability to do many
things that traditional fabrics cannot, including communicate, transform, conduct energy and even
grow.”

Smart textiles can be broken into two different categories:
Aesthetic and Performance Enhancing.
Aesthetic examples include everything from fabrics that light up to fabrics that can
change colour. Some of these fabrics gather energy from the environment by harnessing
vibrations, sound or heat, reacting to this input.
Performance enhancing smart textiles, which will have a huge impact on the
athletic, extreme sports and military industries.
There are fabrics that help regulate body temperature, reduce wind resistance and control
muscle vibration – all of which help improve athletic performance.
Other fabrics have been developed for protective clothing to guard against extreme
environmental hazards like radiation and the effects of space travel.
The health and beauty industry is also taking advantage of these innovations, which range
from drug-releasing medical textiles, to fabric with moisturizer, perfume, and anti-aging
properties.
