Cloud computing is gaining tractionCloud computing offers on-demand services, from storage to software, over the internet. And the fashion industry has gradually been waking up to the potential of cloud computing. In her report, "Fashion Transformation 4.0: Beyond Digitalization & Marketing in Fashion Industry," she said that the fashion industry must embrace new technologies in order to survive. "Fashion is a terribly old-fashioned industry," Alies ter Kuile, the cofounder of Fashion Cloud, said.

Some researchers are advocating the benefits of VR therapy for psychosis treatment. A clinical trial showed VR therapy reduced anxiety and agoraphobia in people with psychosis. Anywhere from 15 to 100 people out of 100,000 develop psychosis annually, according to the National Institute for Mental Health.

But 3D manufacturing, including printing and weaving, is helping create a zero-waste future. AdvertisementAdvertisementIn the late 1990s, the designer Issey Miyake unleashed his game-changing A-POC project, an early attempt at zero-waste fashion. Existing innovations are being fine-tuned daily, and creators are dreaming up ways to turn zero-waste fashion from a utopian dream into a reality. Despite these restrictions, Pasricha's designs were proof that zero-waste 3D printing was possible, especially with small designs such as buttons and jewelry.
