We have seen lots of 3d printing pieces of clothing, but most of it seems much too rigid to comfortably wear on an everyday basis. That's until now. Chinese designer Zhang Hongyu, has lanched a new line of swimsuits which are 3D printed with a silicone material, at this year's Fashion Week in Shanghai China.
"This is not just a swimsuit, it also makes the people who wear it feel happy and look charming. Swimming is part of beach culture. So we want our customers to experience beach culture, to make them feel like they're on a relaxing holiday," Zhang said.
This type of 3d printing could lead, very shortly, to people being able to get 100% customized clothing for prices which are just as reasonable as traditional apparel. Check out the images below f a few of these swimsuits:
