Designers are turning to 3D printing to create collections. Israel’s Danit Peleg is one such designer who offers a customized, 3D printed bomber style jacket as the first commercially available 3D printed garment.
The jacket is printed with a flexible, rubber-like material and has a silky fabric lining that makes it comfortable to wear. The jacket’s serial number is 3D printed on its label. This is the first ready-to-wear 3D printed jacket. It’s printed in Spain and assembled and shipped from Israel. It’s the first step in the journey to a 3D printed world. Thanks to this revolutionary technology, every piece is unique, made to measure with a customer’s own customizations and its production process produces zero waste.
Peleg is known for her 3D printed fashion work. Her collection has made waves in the fashion and tech worlds. Her first collection included five looks which were entirely 3D printed using desktop printers that can be used from home.
In future, as technology improves, Peleg envisions a world where anyone will be able to buy files and print clothes at home or at a designated store. She is passionate about challenging the ecosystem to develop new materials, new printing techniques, and new software breakthroughs.
