“…The work of Sarcone (2017) can be useful in the development of this study as it touches on the psychology of body image; as well as, body image and fashion, allowing for a deeper understanding that is valuable to the study. Moody, Langdon and Karam (2018) cite Moody et al, (2009Moody et al, ( , 2010 and Kang, Johnson and Kim (2015), substantiating the theory that one's behaviour, emotions and cognition are potentially impacted by fashion, overall having the ability to shape the "well-being" of the user. Again, this literature works to prove the theory and objectives being researched in this study, as FT can be used to better one's emotions, cognition and actions, which in turn has a positive impact on one's body image.…”

Purpose: Previous studies have highlighted the important role, fashion can play on one’s cognition and behaviour and how one’s body is impacted, especially people with disabilities. Due to the inconclusive results on the topic, we decided to undertake an empirical study in South Africa to determine how fashion can be used to help women with disabilities to deal with issues of body image, low esteem and negative mindset. Literature review: The study reviewed the literature on body image and disability, body image and fashion as well as on fashion therapy and body image. Methodology: The study adopted a qualitative research design while interviews were used as means of primary data collection. Data analysis was done by means of coding the participants’ responses before conclusions were drawn about the participants’ views. Findings: Findings reveal that fashion can help women with disabilities to deal with the issues related to low self-esteem and body image. Implications: The study ends with recommendations to include other segments of the disabled community in the study, as well as to expand the study in the other parts of the country. The study adds a tremendous knowledge of how to better treat people with disability.

“…While many studies in design and emotion focus on emotional design, this article investigates the artisanal skills that make them identical from each other and socioemotions on the process of crafting. Moody and Kinderman (2019) have demonstrated that designers' personality traits are expressed in their work and serve as factors in moderating the designs of fashion or textile products. As such, the core concepts of this study shift between emotional aspects of design, localism, craftsmanship focusing on artisans-the designers of crafts-in the perspective of their socio-emotional identities.…”

PurposeThis paper examines the socio-emotional identities of handloom artisans in Sri Lanka as a novel technique for new product development.Design/methodology/approachQualitative research methods, including observational research and semi-structured interviews with 27 artisans from different handloom communities in Sri Lanka were conducted and analyzed in thematic approach.FindingsBy highlighting the maker of the craft through their socio-emotional identities in an artisan-oriented approach, this paper provides insight into new product development for handloom in alignment with up-and-coming trends. Ultimately, this can increase the demand for handloom and sustain the sector in both local and international fashion markets.Originality/valueThis research study is one of the first of its kind to propose a novel approach for artisan-oriented product development through the application of artisans’ socio-emotional identities.

“…Furthermore, prior to the pandemic, articles discussed: VR's capacity to educate consumers about the lifespan of garment production, consumption, and disposal, to raise awareness of climate effects [93]; customisation and 3D simulation technology to enable efficiencies and decrease wastage [48,49,51,[53][54][55]; and tackling the issue of the lack of tactile feedback in virtual products, which has implications for both designers and customers [50].…”

“…As discussed elsewhere in this review, earlier immersive technology solutions tended to be 3D visualisations or simulations and CAD, but that should not designate those topics as historical concerns. The technology for the 3D design of garments, particularly the fit and flow of material on a moving human body with multiple body sizes, is evolving and remains a challenging technological endeavour [48,50,61,68,86,87,89]. Some of the papers reviewed focused on mass customisation as a new offering enabled by 3D visualisation technologies [46,49,88], and one examined the potential for haptics to replicate the real-world design process [50].…”

The Intersection of Fashion, Immersive Technology, and Sustainability: A Literature Review

et al. 2023

Fashion industry emissions, resource use, and waste are attracting increasing consumer and government attention, with broad agreement that a new approach is required along the supply chain. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, a move to digitalisation facilitated an accelerating interest in digital applications, including immersive technologies such as augmented and virtual reality. This systematic literature review explores the intersecting topics of fashion, immersive technologies, and sustainability to determine the trends, examine the solutions offered, and discuss the implications of immersive technologies for sustainability. Four resources were consulted (Scholar, SCOPUS, WOS, and ProQuest), resulting in 74 articles for the review. Grey literature was included due to the currency of the topic and gaps in the available academic literature. The findings highlight immersive technology uses in the fashion industry, which are part of a move towards sustainability. These technologies are used to reduce online returns, educate consumers, reduce waste in design and manufacture, and remove the need for physical items. However, issues include high energy costs, consumer reluctance, and skill shortages. Results suggest future research and industry discussions should focus on empirical studies to measure the sustainability impact of immersive technologies, monitor technology diffusion and uptake, and measure the industry skills gap.
