Pretty and Pacified in Baker Miller Pink

This pink hoodie can calm you down and even save your life. It's true.

Combining the science of color and physiology with wearable technology the creators of the Vollebak Baker Miller Pink hoodie have designed a garment that can help elite athletes and explorers not only stay at their best mental state. The hoodie may indeed keep you warm but it will also chill you out. Best of all, its not just 'pretty in pink', the jacket is insulated, water repellent, and wind resistant so serves as a great high-performance mid layer as well.

Haute Couture Technology

We love it when worlds collide and create something fabulous. Take for example, the cover of the March 9, 2013 issue of Science News, Made to Measure. The issue feature explores the state of 3D printing, which is also fabulous, but it is the fashion model striking a pose in the 3D haute couture on the cover that jumped out at us. Fashion (and everything else) forward indeed.

Iris van Herpen

Dutch fashion designer Iris Van Herpen is far and above one of our favorite designers here at Future-ish. Not only is her aesthetic light years ahead of other designers, her textiles, techniques, and styling also seem to come from some future century. From 3D printers to innovative processes that create unique fabrics, van Herpen continues to deliver stunning collections that make us imagine a truly inspired present and future.

Pure Pattern with Peter Pilotto

Our latest couture crush is on fashion house Peter Pilotto. Comprised of Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos, the label has become well known for its geometric patterns, sculpted lines, and futuristic silhouettes that are somehow completely reimagined each season.

Holly Fulton's 22nd Century Fashion

There is fashion forward and then there is fashion WAY forward. The designs of London-based Holly Fulton are definitely in the latter category. Fulton has consistently cast her "Fulton ladies" in bold graphics, deco designs, and striking metal and gem bling. Fashionistas probably see Egypt, art deco, and old Hollywood in her work but being design AND science geeks here at Future-ish, we see future retro with references to Bladerunner, Battlestar Galactica (both the original and the remake), and Stargate. Fabulous, striking, inspired. We can't wait for more.
