The launch of this year’s London Technology Week, Europe's largest festival of technology, is set to bring together some of UK's leading fashion technology designers for a first of its kind fashion technology showcase. London based fashion designer Brooke Roberts has been commissioned by London & Partners, the Mayor of London's promotional company, to curate the exhibition which will be displayed at the launch of London Technology Week 2016. The installation will include a 3D printed wearable garment designed by Modeclix, the world's first holographic intelligent mannequin from Headworks and a behind the scenes look at London Fashion Week using 360 degree video and content curated by creative communications agency Village.
The showcase will also feature a number of other cutting edge fashion technologies including: Bruise Suit, Brooke Roberts, Infi-Tex clothing, InMoov Robot and London Fashion Week 360 Film by Village.
London hosted its first London Technology Week in 2014 and last year's festival saw 220 events, attracting over 43,000 attendees from around the world. This year's launch event will convene leading figures from the technology and wider business community, focussing on London as hub for the convergence of technology with traditional industries.
