Everything about Iris van Herpen’s Biopiracy Fashion Show in Paris was impressive, the setting, the music, the shrink wrapped models, and of course, the 3D printed, flexible dress!
For the first time ever, designers have 3D printed a multi-material dress composed of both rubber-like and rigid elements that are 3D printed simultaneously on the Stratasys Objet Connex system. Here, we interview the creators; Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen and professor Neri Oxman from the MIT's Media Lab.
Joshua Harker describes himself as an “artist, sculptor, musician, digital adventurer, imagination architect, troublemaker.” It seems that one of the duties an ‘imagination architect’ has is to put together fashion shows, and it’s in this context that he created the above Quixotic Divinity Headdress.
PARIS — Eleganceis the watch word here, as a young model walks down the aisle, wearing a pair of astonishingly shaped stilettos, its complex patterns reminiscent of certain architectural constructions. The graceful shoes, created by French designer Pierre Renaux, were made entirely with a machine that is on the verge of changing the world, a 3D printer.
Fashion designer Justin LeBlanc uses 3D printing to create ‘sound wave’ accessories that accentuated his collection of clothes to get him into the final of Project Runway 2013.
From a dress that tweets to Google glasses coming down the runway at New York Fashion Week, we’ve been seeing a growing intersection between fashion and technology in the past few years. This emergence of high-tech fashion is part of the reason why we kicked off the HP Laptop Bag Design Competition three weeks ago to challenge the design community to create an innovative new laptop bag for HP’s new super-lightweight Spectre XT Ultrabook. So how are fashion and design creatives using technology to inform their work? Hit the jump to see a few of our favorite high-tech wearable designs.
A two-day class focused on introducing students to the fundamentals of 3D printing articulated structures such as chain mail, weaves, and mesh. Students will work in a hands-on, studio environment implementing 3D printing technology while learning how to create digitally modeled fabrications within a virtual environment. Methodologies utilizing Maya and Rhino software will be explored. We require students bring their own laptop to the class. Software licensing and additional materials will be provided to all students by Francis Bitonti Studio.
Studio XO is singularly attempting to disrupt the fashion industry and what you and I define as fashion. Their vision is so poignant and each of their fashion tech experimentations so progressive, it is safe to say they are Fashion Futurists shaping the future evolution of what we will wear.
What is remarkable is how each project taps into the most primative human desires: the lust to fly or simply be and feel connected. The narratives they weave into their work are not only compelling, but allow us all to connect to it on a more visceral level.
Every time you go on a longer trip outside of the city, you’ll see trucks full of stuff for us to consume or stuff that has already been consumed. This is the most apparent visual for logistics, th...
The inspiration and technology behind the first articulated 3D-printed gown, designed by Michael Schmidt with architect Francis Bitonti and printed by Shapeways for burlesque icon Dita Von Teese.
Becky Stern shows you how to make your own glowing spike fashion accessory using 3D printing with NinjaFlex flexible filament to diffuse a strip of NeoPixel LEDs, controlled by GEMMA inside a flexible stitch- or pin-on enclosure.

In the future you’ll be able to print your party dress at home, your T-shirt will be able to hug you, your clothes will clean themselves and models will just be holograms on the catwalk! Except wait… this is all happening right now. Innovation in fashion is developing at full speed, so what does the future look like?
Digital haute couture is all set to take a big leap in the coming years. The day is not far when designer fashion apparels and even mass produced branded clothing will use 3D printing as their production tool; a flux between technology and glamour.
In case you haven’t heard, 3D printing has enteredthemainstream, and it will disrupt every industry’s manufacturing processes slightly differently. Let’s talk about why it will work in fashion.
LONDON, United Kingdom — Catherine Wales began her career in menswear tailoring, worked on the “skinny” menswear silhouette for Hedi Slimane’s Autumn/Winter 2000 collection for Yves Saint Laurent, joined Jean-Charles de Castelbajac and worked at Gap before she started experimenting with 3D printing. “With 3D printing we now have the ability to realise our creations almost instantly, speeding up the development process in a way we never thought possible,” Wales told BoF. “This technology holds the promise of a world where imagination has no boundaries and in time there won’t be a material that cannot be reproduced as a 3D … More
