Spray-on dresses, growable suits and self-cleaning shirts -these may become everyday items in a future wardrobe. In this visionary exploration of where fashion and clothing are headed, Suzanne Lee provides the first guide to the astonishing ways in which contemporary science and technology are shaping what we wear.

The fast-paced world of fashion is driven by an appetite for the new and creative, an appetite this inspirational book satisfies to the full. Fashioning the Future examines the work of those scientific researchers and fashion designers, such as Issey Miyake, Hussein Chalayan and Walter Van Beirendonck, who are transforming today"s science fiction into tomorrow"s reality. It is illustrated throughout with stunning fashion "dreamscapes" created by leading British image-makers Warren du Preez and Nick Thornton Jones, as well as a host of innovative visions from the past whose time has at last arrived.

Fashioning the Future is a unique visual journey, an informative research tool, and an imaginative, exciting message that the future is here. It is essential for those interested in the long-term future of fashion, design, innovation and lifestyle - as well as for everyone wanting to know how to stand out from the crowd.
