“…In this scope, the main advantages of AM, over conventional manufacturing process are: (1) geometrical flexibility, which allows to improve and optimize product functional and structural features, (2) microstructure-properties modification through metamaterials approach, (3) use of less raw material, (4) cost and resource efficiency for small scale production, (5) cloud manufacturing which shortens the supply chain due to a more localised production, with important sustainability benefits (Ali et al, 2019;Cabigiosu, 2020;Ford & Despeisse, 2016;Kabir et al, 2020;Keefe et al, 2022;Kim et al, 2019;Praveena et al, 2022;Ruckdashel et al, 2021;Vanderploeg et al, 2017). Huang et al (Huang et al, 2013) stated that: "AM is expected to become a key manufacturing technology in the sustainable society of the future".…”

“…On the other hand, the main disadvantages of AM are: (1) post processing needs, (2) process variability influence the 3D object's reproducibility, (3) undesired porosity and anisotropic features that compromise the mechanical properties obtained, (4) size limitations on 3D objects to print and (5) slower build rate when it comes to mass customization (Cabigiosu, 2020;Chakraborty & Biswas, 2020;Faludi et al, 2015;Kim et al, 2019;Praveena et al, 2022).…”

An exhaustive and integrative overview of recent developments in 3D and 4D textiles based on Additive Manufacturing (AM) were provided in order to identify the current state‐of‐the‐art. Despite all scientific progress, AM applied on textiles is a challenging technique and is still at an embryonic stage of research and technological development (R&TD), mainly due to the technological gap between featured prototypes and scalability in manufacturing. Despite its full potential across a range of different applications, such as development of functional filament fibres/wires, 3D printing on textiles, 3D printing completed garments and 4D textiles, needs future developments. Although, AM applied on textiles, enables cost and resource efficiency for small scale production through localised production, shorten supply chain and demand driven manufacture, both customisable and scalable, embracing cost and environmental sustainability. The opportunities and limits of 3D and 4D printing textiles are also discussed. Finally, the conclusion highlights the potential future development and application of the convergence of advanced computational design techniques, product customization, mathematical modelling, simulation, and digital modelling within multifunctional textiles.

“…Moreover, in recent years, 3DP has attracted abundant attention in the textile and fashion industries because of its ability for customization of size and shape. In comparison with the production of traditional cloths, 3DP technology can offer individual customization according to the wearer's body through 3D scanning, and allows for the creation of highly complex structures [11]. However, because of the limitation of raw materials, it is difficult to produce products with the same properties as traditional textiles, in terms of flexibility, scalability and pore structure.…”

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) allows for the creation of highly complex products and offers customization for individual users. It has generated significant interest and shows great promise for textile and fashion design. Here, we provide a timely and comprehensive review of 3DP technology for the textile and fashion industries according to recent advances in research. We describe the four 3DP methods for preparing textiles; then, we summarize three routes to use 3DP technology in textile manufacturing, including printing fibers, printing flexible structures and printing on textiles. In addition, the applications of 3DP technology in fashion design, functional garments and electronic textiles are introduced. Finally, the challenges and prospects of 3DP technology are discussed.
