Incorporating reflective material is a leading trend in consumer clothing design, but is it being used effectively? Based on new research and design experience, Chuck will show you using a case study on a commercialized garment how to optimize the use of reflective material in clothing designs. He will help you understand this amazing material by sharing the 5 most important design considerations when using reflective material and how to efficiently incorporate reflective into your designs to increase visibility. He will also teach you about the Reflective Visibility Score (VRS™) and how you can use design to optimize the use of the reflective material on sportswear and outdoor clothing.
