Nowadays clothing has more functions than just climatic protection and good look. Developing smart and interactive apparel sector, clothing obtained additional ability to communicate with environment and its wearer. The concept of communication apparel may be perceived as the result of a convergence of two industries: textiles and electronics. Electrotextiles represent huge potential in creating a new generation of flexible textile platforms for electronic systems and smart garments. Smart textile systems different range of applications like medical (monitoring of health, medical therapeutics), safety (work wear and protective clothing), leisure and fashion etc. In this study research is focused on photonic textiles, designing woven light-emitted textile display. Flexible light emitting textile can be used as output interface integrated into communication clothing by representing different animated images directly on clothing.
