This creative color-changing skirt called 'Chamelyo' will shift from one color to another when it is spun around. This innovative product will ensure a quick outfit change is always available.

The Chamelyo works by using paneled pleating that can be turned around to reveal a new color without ever removing the skirt. Unlike a reversible skirt or dress, this product is made “solely of textiles, woven together with an origami-inspired technique.” There are no zippers, buttons or Velcro associated with the color-changing skirt.

This uniquely designed skirt is set to launch a [Kickstarter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chong-shop) campaign, which will aid in the funding required to manufacture and produce the fashion-forward garment. The brand aims to create clothing for females of all ages while helping consumers find new ways to express themselves through their clothing.
