Shimmer, Flip-Flop, Nasturtium Dress“Classp” is a continuing project begun at the Textile Lab at Fab Lab Barcelona. Clothing is passive—it drapes, it is hung from the body. What would it mean if it grabbed on? This project integrates 4 bar linkages as a mechanism into the spandex forming a symbiotic relationship; the spandex, two rectangular half yards, require the mechanism to stay on the body, and the mechanisms require the spandex to actuate. Like a spring clamp, the fabric creates the tension which allows the dress to grab on to the shoulders and waist.
