Reimagine Fashion

Designers are re-thinking the way we create and consume fashion, which is currently the world’s second most polluting industry and our second largest user of water—as well as one of the most exploitative of its workers. But imagine if you could drop last season’s jacket into a machine that would reconstruct its fibers into hipster pants straight off the runway–you’d never have to buy new again, right? That’s the vision behind Electroloom, a 3D printer currently in development that debuted its concept at SXSW Eco this year.
