37. Cultural Revival in Modern Fashion

Year: 2025
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Cultural revival in modern fashion reflects a growing appreciation for traditional textiles, techniques, and craftsmanship while adapting them to contemporary aesthetics. This movement seeks to bridge the gap between heritage and modernity by integrating indigenous fabrics, handloom techniques, and regional motifs into every day and high-fashion clothing. Designers worldwide are reinterpreting ethnic wear, such as ikat, khadi, and block-printed fabrics, in modern silhouettes, making heritage relevant for today’s consumers. Beyond aesthetics, this trend supports artisan communities, promotes sustainable practices, and fosters cultural identity in a globalized fashion industry. The fusion of traditional and modern design not only preserves cultural heritage but also positions fashion as a medium for storytelling, social consciousness, and ethical consumption in the 21st century.
