Danit Peleg

Danit Peleg is a recent graduate of Shenkar College of Engineering and Design in Israel has taken the bold step of  launching a 3D printed collection. At first she struggled because the printing material was so inflexible, but then was introduced to FilaFlex, a new kind strong flexible printable filament. This is the first full collection designed to be produced on home printers in a move to make home printing of clothing more accessible and viable.

Predicting future developments Danit suggests that fashion could become more like music in its accessibility; "Customers could download the patterns, just like music files, and print them.” Danit Peleg

Nadir Gordon, Waves

Nadir Gordon a textiles and fashion student at the University de Palermo, Buenos Aires has worked with worked 3D artist Jonathan Guerra to develop this 3D printed prototype swimming costume called 'Waves'.

“I began to study the vast world of 3D printing and became fascinated by it, seeing it as an opportunity to create garments and accessories in an innovative way. Designers like Iris Van Herpen and Francis Bitonti, with their sculpture-like pieces, inspired me to experiment with this technology that provides tools to create volume and shapes that are almost impossible to construct with fabrics and the traditional ways of creating a garment.” Nadir Gordon
