The water-soluble textiles and environmentally responsive fabrics are particularly exciting to me. As part of my thesis research, I’m looking into the realms of sustainability, feminism, and designing for the apocalypse. Searching around on these wearable tech websites, it was hard to pick just one project that intrigued me, because I found so many that combined these three interests. I ended up choosing these two (I know I cheated), because they fall into the field of “low tech,” so while they aren’t embedded with LEDs or connected to a smartphone, for examples, they do demonstrate technical thinking and design, and, most importantly to me, are made with the textile’s life cycle in mind.
