Combining the digitized world with the aesthetic of an art movement, label threeASFOUR and digital printing giant Epson collaborated on a kaleidoscopic avant-garde fashion collection that was presented during Fashion Week.
Dubbed 'cymaSCOPE,' the clothing line features diluted prints on oversized and asymmetrical silhouettes. The dark undertones of the garments highlight Epson's digital dye sublimation and direct printing technology. The designs in the avant-garde fashion collection are inspired by sound and water—namely, the effect certain harmonic frequencies have on still liquid surfaces.
The vibrant and interesting pattern variations in the theme, as well as the printing process, make the threeASFOUR x Epson cymaSCOPE collection a great example of a crossover between artful fashion and tech-minded design.
