For an assignment for my 3d class in collage we have to make an outfit for a fashion show but cannot use typical fabrics, (cotton, polyester, etc...). So what materials should I use or what do you think i should do?

Here is the link to last years show.

find some creative type of faux leather. I have heard of someone trying to culture leather from bacteria or something like that. I bet if you emailed the person doing it, they would help you get ahold of some of it.

I've also heard about bioengineering real leather, although that's probably a bit far into the future for your college project!

Ask some slutty broads around campus what they would wear to an anything but clothes party. You'll get some great ideas.

Only if it's used. You can be making a statement.

learn to read then you fucking moron

i'm talking about something like this:



there are also people who are growing real leather in labs. we can create a superior product than leather grown on cows. It just costs a lot right now. But you can grow leather more perfect, as thick or thin as you want, and in whatever shape you want. Imagine a pair of leather boots that was grown around a mold, so it required no seams. you could also make it thicker than traditional leather boots.

Either way, that technology is like a decade away. However something like the video I posted above is something that this person could do for their project...

Its a material being created for use as a fabric.... what dont you understand regarding the concept of using a none regular material for clothing?



polystyrene
duct tape
electrical wire
vitamins
computers
=
Non typical material for clothing



cotton
yarn
leather/pleather (regardless of method of production)
polyester
silk
=
typical material used in clothing

just stop trying to argue your point. it should be obvious to you that you have a stupid argument.

if I take brown duct tape and call it pleather, then does that make it a "regular" material for clothing as well?

I guarantee you that if someone created a bacteria culture, draped it over a mannequin, and let it dry into a piece of clothing, that it would count as a "non-regular" material. Not only that, but they would almost certainly get an A.

seriously. you are arguing that fucking cultured bacteria, or artificially grown leather, is a "normal" material. I just don't think I have a word to describe how stupid you are being. fuck.
