Digital fashion is a phenomenon that has become popular due to the technological era that redefines the interaction with clothing and stylistic expression. digital fashion was explored from the relationship between technology, garment signs and the body in the contemporary era. To illustrate how visual and technological elements converge to redefine fashion in the 21st century. For the methodological proposal, a qualitative approach was employed using netnography as the main method. This methodology allowed us to understand the cultural dynamics and perceptions of users in the digital environment. Consequently, it is important to continue researching the integration of emerging technologies in digital fashion, fostering interdisciplinary collaborations and providing a deep understanding of how new technologies are transforming wearable signs and offering valuable insights for designers on the creation of interactive and personalized digital garments that respond to the demands of a digitized market.
