About this Collection:
“DRESS_CODE” focuses on the merger between technology and fashion. It combines looks that were 3D printed by a robotic arm with sustainable materials through three methods: random, accurate, and large-scale. Inspired by software engineering, the collection explores the aesthetics of the abilities and limitations of this technology. The thesis research and collection compare traditional methods, such as patternmaking and fabric sewing to 3D printing by hand and by a robot, where software becomes art and is translated into wearable objects. - Rights
