No need to buy that next dress to wear out to dinner, or a party…Just spray it on!
The spray-on technique was developed by Fabrican, a company founded by Spanish fashion designer and scientist Manel Torres. Fabrican liquid contains cotton or synthetic fibres, suspended in a polymer solution that evaporates when it makes contact with the body. After wearing, it can be removed and turned back into a solution, ready for reuse. Coperni co-founders Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant have been working with Torres and his team at London’s Bioscience Innovation Centre over the past six months to develop the spray-on, one-shouldered dress:
“It’s our duty as designers to try new things and show a possible future,” says Meyer, who is also creative director (Vaillant is CEO). “We’re not going to make money on this, but it’s a beautiful moment — an experience that creates emotion.”
Will this new technology change the “Way We Dress” for the future?
