[3D Printing Designer] Iris Van Herpen

Dutch designer Iris Van Herpen, is one of first to create fashion garment made of 3D printing technique (Spring/Summer 2012 Haute Couture collection show in Paris). Van Herpen collaborated with Materialise and architect to create a 3D printed dress made from lasersintered plastic. She developed a innovative new textile(TPU 92A-1) which is credited as the first printable material that is flexible, durable enough to be worn and washed in the machine. Van Herpen also printed a cape and skirt that are built up out of two totally different materials; one soft and one hard which were printed together. It was the first attempt to combine different materials in a single 3D print. 





           

3D printing has made it possible to produce precise sizing and mass production. It could also allow startup labels to produce small orders to avoid unsold stock, and allow easy customization. This indicates that there are more possibilities in specifying on flexibility within printing a garment.
