The problem of sizing in fashion, to this day, has been solved through elastics, oversize clothes or laces. However, auxetic geometries together with laser cutting technology offer us another range of possibilities to address this problem. Through this research, different types of auxetic geometries have been studied on various textile supports, with the aim of achieving garment adaptable to different shapes, silhouettes and structures.
To do this, different types of laser-cut auxetic geometries on different textiles are tested and their tensile strength, elongation and Poisson's ratio are analysed, with the aim of finding the ideal textile and geometries combination.
My class on auxetic geometries with laser cutting on textiles to enhance garment adaptability aims to raise awareness among students about sizing issues, body positivity, and the need for inclusive solutions. The expected results include students acquiring technical skills around the possibilities offered by different auxetic geometries in fashion design.
