Recently, I have seen a news that 3d printed cloth is available now, and many models have already wore 3d clothes in the T stage show? Below are some pictures for your reference. So I was wondering which kind of 3d printer can print those clothes?

As Nate mentioned, 3D printed fashion at present involves mostly 3D printed solid items sewed into fashionable structures like the victoria's secret model's wings for this past show. Some of the items shown as "cloth" are simply flexible meshes and filled flat membranes curved and stitched into the form for their use. Some 3D printed items are fully articulated and encompass the wearer, like the gown created by designer Francis Bitonti and worn by Dita Von Teese.
Designs like this are actually complex creations formed from 3D printed interlocking solid elements, which have been custom tailored to the model's body shape.

These are more works of art than actual clothing. There are some attempts to create 3d Printable cloth similar to a pre-fab T-shirt, but those rely on ink-let based modelling like Objet's PolyJet and are not yet fully realized to print on-demand items for anyone's body style. That has yet to come into existence.
