FashionTech

FashionTech is the combination of Fashion, Technology and Interaction Design. In where Design is aimed to create any kind of Technology based dialogue with the body or the surroundings of the wearer. Using Fashion as a new kind of Interface. It was coined by FashionTech Designer, Anouk Wipprecht (2007)"^[1]. FashionTech is not the same as Fashion Technology. There is a psychological interactive aspect that is connected to the garment. The emotional complexity of interactive 3D design and print material with sensor technologies add to couture robotics rather than a typical consumer wearable technology. Fashion Technology are the technological tools and processes used for the Fashion Industry ^[2].

Semantics of FashionTech and Fashion Technology. An early innovator of Fashion Technology, Dr. Sabine Seymour. She is a serial entrepreneur that started consulting for wearables since 1998, Fashionable Technology^[3]. Fashion Designer Anouk Wipprecht worked with Dr. Sabine Seymour and developed a more intimate relationship with wearable technology through sensors. "FashionTech" came about through filling a gap between garments through interactive design with biosensors focused on biosignals like EEG and EKG. The slightest difference brings a different focus and FashionTech embraces high-response and flairs of human expression through electronic garments--robotic couture. The Agent Unicorn that the interactive garments are viewed in exhibitions halls and museums. InteliQ spawned with Anouk Wipprecht's Spider Dress as a traveling exhibit to inspire gender equity and more makers in 2015. More to be mentioned include Valérie LaMontagne and Alex Murray-Leslie that keep the space alive through festivals and bridging educational institutions.

The emerging field is filled with designers rather supportive on sustaining and evolving the field. As time passes in big data and platforms. Dr. Seymour transitions to research on the focus of psychological response to societal changes through the use of wearable--FashionTech.^[4]^{[unreliable source?]} The hybridization of human and computing interface styled by 3D printing. Liza Kindred launched Third Wave Fashion and claimed "the original fashion tech company" conceptualized 2011^[5]. Third Wave Fashion focused on consultancy and highlights of Fashion Technology startups with consumer wearable carrying data plans and services. Then coincidentally changes over to Mindful Technology when Anouk Wipprecht became a resident for Clothing as Emotional Interface at TED New York in 2017^[6]^[7].
