The future fashion largely depends on technological innovation as top designers in the world like Issey Miyake, Rei Kawakubo, Hussein Chalayan, and Alexander McQueen already tried introducing the newest technology of laser, electronic technology and 3D printing into their works.

The exhibition in 2016 will showcase some works from these designers along with other exhibits. The highlight of the exhibition is a laser printed skirt from Alexander McQueen's last show in 2010. The exhibition will explore collaborations among designers, mathematicians and scientists, and show how clothing can present different visual effects brought by the technology.
