3D Printing as a Design Tool for Innovative Bag Manufacturing: Integrating Digital Modeling and Additive Production Politecnico di Milano, Italy The integration of digital design tools and additive manufacturing tech-nologies is transforming the development of fashion accessories. This pa-per investigates the role of 3D printing as a design tool for innovative bag manufacturing, focusing on its ability to integrate form, structure, and ma-terial within a single production process. The study combines a literature review on additive manufacturing in the fashion sector with an experi-mental design. Particular attention is given to flexible structures and 3D-printed textiles, addressing the limitations of material rigidity in fashion-related applications. The research culminates in the development of an ex-perimental bag collection that demonstrates how additive manufacturing enables new design paradigms based on customization, reduced waste, and improved production efficiency. The results highlight the potential of 3D printing as both a creative and industrial tool in contemporary accessory design. | |
