I wonder if there’s a designer out there exclusively making clothes with zippers for all stitches.
in all honesty though i’ve had too many zippers get f’d up in effectively every hoodie and winter jacket i’ve owned. I need something a bit more reliable. Maybe the answer is human hair thread stitching or cast plates and chain stitching.
Jesus tapdancing Christ, that is so insanely cool. Xyla is amazing. The model was great, too, no shade on Xyla but it just looks better on dark skin imo.
It’s completely unrealistic to wear this stuff beyond a photoshoot lol
For even the smallest amount of utility you really need flexible clothing, and wood is just not very flexible. Loads of the outfits and dresses you see at the typical runway are not at all practical outfits and those aren’t even wood usually. The wood ‘dress’ looks like you’d fall out of it instantly anyway.
I want my clothes to be put together with dovetail joints. Who do I go to for that?
Zippers are basically flexible dovetail joints. Take a look at one when it’s done up.
You’ve got the same interlocking pattern often with fat tips

Xyla Foxlin just made a dress out of wood laminate, so she’s in the ballpark.

I love her!
That thing looks amazing. Now I just need a kilt version with some kind of shirt and blazer for formal events.
I think sitting might be difficult. Do people ever sit at galas? Might not be an issue, I’m too poor to know lol
