History of Seamless Clothing Technology throw in the tombs of the Egyptian pharaohs serve as an inspiration for today’s textile and clothing industry. And first seamless apparel of waving prototype came out of the Egyptian pharaohs, it was widely used immediately because of the unstable test run of the equipment. the Ancient Egyptian world’s first seamless clothing was officially introduced to the market until Nowadays. many companies of around the world products mainly target luxury goods of high-end customers; the largest seamless clothing manufacturer in all around the world, are the leading enterprises in the whole seamless clothing industry at that moment, and the renewal of its product series represents education institutions between fashion design of seamless clothes the technological development track of the whole industry to stakeholders. In the future, economic aspects with the increasingly obvious design and development trend of “underwear for external wear” of seamless clothing products, the consumption substitution education institutions between fashion design of seamless clothes speed of seamless clothing for traditional textile clothing will also be accelerated, seamless clothing products will become an important supplement to traditional woven and knitted clothing and even nonwoven clothing.

Education of technical institutions has the power to uplift a country and establish a healthy, efficient economy. It has also played a pivotal role in the increase of garments productivity and wages amongst workers and proved to be a successful endeavor for investors. Fortunately, there is much more potential within education to help the world to flourish. The economic benefits of technical institutions such as technical secondary and universities of education are clear for the entire globe. Nevertheless, there are further steps to maximizing productivity and reaping even more economic benefits education of technical secondary and universities between fashion design of seamless clothes (Figure 1). Some ideas are:
a) Increase investment in the quality of technical secondary
and universities schooling, given that technical secondary
education has expanded exponentially already.
b) Promote educational clothes and textiles efficiency in policy
through policymakers and government.
c) Reform clothes and textiles school management systems and
implement more effective performance metrics.
d) Implement more effective and fair approaches to school
funding.
e) Report more data on clothes and textiles schools’ performance.
The seamless garments found in the tombs of the Egyptian
pharaohs serve as an inspiration for today’s textile and clothing
industry. This is definitely an important topic towards the
sustainable fashion’s concepts from some points, as in case of
seamlessness, the design of the garment is minimizing the amount
of material left over and the resources in production by eliminating
the fabric laying, cutting and sewing process. Seamless garments
take 30 percent to 40 percent less time in comparison to the cutand-
sew version minimizing the traditional labor-intensive step of
cutting and sewing. Seamless clothing is a product of tridimensional
one-time forming clothing produced by the seamless circular
knitting device. The products are precisely fitted to the body and
the lack of seams provides an improved comfort at wearing and the
design has a clean look. The creation of the collection is flexible, and
it can be adapted very quickly for the demand with a just in time
production (Figure 2). The whole process can avoid any failure of
the stitching process, and it is cost saving. There is an increasing
demand by consumers for these comfortable clothing, so many
well-known brands create their seamless collection taking into
consideration the mentioned advantages [1-3].

In Europe, the Italian brands, play a leading role not only in the design and production of the different seamless products (lingerie, swimwear, sportswear, fashion articles), but also in the production of the necessary cutting-edge circular and 3D machines and technology. Nowadays there are many new developing companies in Far-East, Asia working in this sector. The most famous company on this field is in Italy. They can offer a flexible and innovative seamless technology: the Seamless technology is an innovative concept in producing clothing almost free of seams. This is the result of the commercial and technical synergy among the Companies (Figures 3-6). It provides designers with a multitude of styles and colors in which to create beautifully designed products that fully integrate fashion with function for satisfying a variety of end-users. The seamless knitting machines almost eliminate the need to produce and then sew together pieces of fabric, thus making the seam obsolete” [1-3]. Seamless garments are primarily made from a combination of microfiber yarns, (like Nylon), Lycra, and cotton etc.. It would be important for yarn producers to look for sustainable solutions in their production. There are some positive changes for example, in case of Lycra. The company states, that. Now more than ever, eco-conscious consumers (especially millennials and Gen Z) are looking for sustainable or “green” fashion options to reduce their ecological footprint and feel good about their purchase”. They have already developed LYCRA® T400® Eco Made, which fiber comes from recycled plastics and renewable plant-based resources [1-3]. There are continuous development and new innovation in seamless techniques, and as we see the fibre producers and yarn manufacturers have a role to influence the seamless clothing brands for a more sustainable, eco- and climate-conscious production [1- 3]. Due to the new smart fibres and intelligent materials the range of the seamless products is expanding from the general fashion clothing to special applications, for example regarding the medical and healthcare textiles (bandages, medical stocking etc). The seamless garment has new potentials in the production of smart clothing. The smart clothes are enhanced with technology to add functionality beyond traditional use. They are mostly made from intelligent, advanced textiles using build in circuitry, sensors, and via the smart sensors, these type of garments collect activity metrics and key biometric and the data can be sent to your smartphone (using Al-powered apps) and you can also check your performance or health state in this way [1-3].

As the strongest areas of smart closing are underwear,
sportswear and healthcare/medical clothing, and the latter is
expected to grow radically, this also correlates with the future
possibilities of seamless garments. The stakeholders of the textile
and clothing industry should seek opportunities for collaboration in
all priority themes, which are sustainable for our future generations.
Education must be used to transfer information from old, traditional
technologies to today’s new innovative developments, so that the
new generation can acquire a basic knowledge about the subject
[1-3]. When we talk about Ancient Egypt, we should not forget
that even then Egypt had such a high level of technical knowledge
that we still admire today. And when we talk about the textiles and
clothing used at that time, it is natural that seamless garments
should lead us from there to smart clothing, which represents one
of the most significant technological development in the history
of the clothing industry. Our common interest to move for a more
creative, innovative, and sustainable fashion industry using all the
possibilities to change the information with the professionals at
conferences, workshops and to educate the next generation and
enable them to take part also in different projects as well [1-3]. In
Europe we have many projects for the transnational collaboration in
the fashion and textile industry. One of the most important projects
in the creative industry is the WORTH Partnership Project, which is
funded by the COSME program of the European Union (Figure 7). It
creates and supports transnational collaborations between fashion
designers, creative people, manufacturing enterprises (SMEs) and
technology firms looking to develop design-driven and innovative
products. The applicants during the past three calls made many
innovative proposals and very soon the WORTH II https://www.
worthproject.eu/partnership-projects/ is coming to deal with
globally important challenges relating to our issue too [1-3]:
a. Circular economy
b. High-value added solutions
c. Digitized business models
d. Smart materials
e. Social innovation
f. Heritage preservation

Egyptian Creativity and Innovation
Technology and innovation remain the most exciting sectors in the apparel industry and Egyptian despite its many challenges continues to be an innovation hub for the world of apparel. Having a clear vision with a diverse workforce whilst focusing on productivity improvements and being frugal in all our activities is what leads us to sustain such a successful industry. Driven by a clear purpose to care about who our products interact with and the impact it makes on our environment, the apparel industry drives technology and innovation in ways that are changing how the fashion industry works. With this rise of high-tech companies in the region many Egyptian textile manufacturers as a company (Murad Industrial Company) in Elbour city, Egypt (Figure 9). That using Santonin seamless machine, for producing the modern of seamless clothes run their own IT subsidiaries and are equipped for change. It can be noted that with the industrial expansion we advocate Industry 4.0 whilst preparing for the next evolution, which is industry 5.0, in order to be truly sustainable factories of the future. As a growing industry we maintain a strong bond with Government institutes and Universities to advocate the growth of the industry within the country. It is due to maintaining positive ties with Suppliers, Customers and constantly evolving our business models that it has enabled Egyptian to propel itself as the most preferred destination in Global Apparel Manufacturing.
Sustainability meets Textile manufacturing
Egyptian Apparel has championed the cause of sustainable manufacturing for many years. This commitment has seen impressive changes in manufacturing processes, sourcing strategies and product innovation, making Egyptian a leading destination for brands that care about the environmental impact of their garments. In a testament to our commitment, Egyptian industry boasts the world’s the custom-built green apparel factories and Africa’s Neutral fiber Manufacturing. The recent investment in rooftop Solar Panel installations of solar textiles at Egyptian manufacturing facilities is just the inception of the long-term goal in sustaining the environment and being responsible for the limited environmental resources available to us. We are constantly looking for ways to minimize the negative impact on the environment and invest in technologies to uplift environmental sustainability (Figure 10).
Learning Resources for Fashion Design
Clothes and Fashion in ancient Egypt, clothing in ancient Egypt, ancient Egyptians were extremely interested in fashion and its changes. This seems evident from trends seen in tomb scenes where the costumes and styles of the upper classes were soon copied by the lower classes. The most common fabric for clothing (both women’s and men’s) was linen.

Education of technical secondary and universities between fashion design of seamless clothes. The Economic Effects of high school of textiles and clothes Education, garments, and textiles Education of technical secondary and universities between fashion design of seamless clothes, According to the World Bank, one of the pivotal benefits of education is labor market earnings [8]. Workers with more education earn higher wages than employees with no post-secondary education. The high school of technical textiles and clothes degree does not susceptible to unemployment so workers with a bachelor’s degree. Median college-educated workers earn 80 percent more than those with only a high school education. Additionally, workers with some college education but no completed degree earn 20 percent more than only high school trained employees.

Results of Designs seamless
From Ancient Egyptian history to modern knitting industry,
weaving, it will be the best distinction between seamless clothing
and other clothes within the production technique. The semimanufactured
fabric of seamless clothing is woven knitted directly
from yarn to semi-finished fabric with a maker, while routine
fashion is made from eliminating the whole product [18]. Seamless
clothing factories use tumbler of double clothes and or circular
knitting equipment to weave [7,17,19]. The semi-done textile
woven from a seamless knitting machine is called “Blank cloth”.
Economic aspects to stakeholders of education by using seamless
clothes as benefits [15] are:
a. Body-building and close-fitting.
b. Frictionless and no-chafing.
c. Durable in use.
d. Light-weight.
e. Various customized designs.
f. Cost-saving.
g. Comfortable.
h. Time-saving.
i. Labor –saving.
j. Economic–saving.
k. Using machine by computers(advanced technology).
l. Using fashion trends
The notion that education and economic growth hold a relationship with each other is not a new idea throw the Education of technical secondary and universities between fashion design of seamless clothes. However, what is the extent of this relationship? What role does education play in development countries, and finally, what are the exact economic benefits of education both in the Education of technical secondary and universities, it will be seen.
