Abstract: The field of 3D printing is a developing and innovative technological solution for the textile industry and related fields. The textile industry is a large consumer of water, chemicals and energy and has a huge impact on the environment. The use of 3D printing in the clothing industry has the potential to simplify the technological process of making clothes and reduce the number of resources needed. 3D printing creates products layer by layer, reducing waste material. In addition to synthesized polymers, alternative materials are being studied in line with the growing demand for sustainable fashion and ethical clothing production. The paper describes 3D printing techniques and materials that are used in the fashion industry. Also, the advantages and challenges of this innovative technology were discussed.
