Translating Deployable Structures into Fabric

In this episode I demonstrate some paper folding patterns, talk about pleats, and pose this week's design question: "Which details from runway clothes and accessories could be combined with deployable structures?"

I will be making magical clothes for Fairytale Fashion. These might be clothes that have blooming flowers, living clothes that breathe, change color, transform. And guess what, YOU will be leading the design! Fairytale Fashion depends on your participation. How do you participate? Each Monday, FairytaleFashion.org will have a new video that introduces a technology like inflatables, deployable structures, muscle wire and microcontrollers. At the end of each video is a design question. Answer the weekly design questions on our website at http://fairytalefashion.org/
