As a whole, the collection has been named 'Organs,' and it takes inspiration from the movements of the human body in relation to the ways a fabric moves to accommodate the wearer. Dezaldeti's unusual [knitting sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-echoes) have an [organic feel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biomimicry-fashion) to them, and since the collection is made from woven red and white yarns, it mimics the coloring of internal components of the body like muscles, tissue and blood cells. The crafty sculptures were created with the use of a [manual knitting machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-knitting-machine1), achieving a balance of sinewy and structured forms. One of the wearable designs looks like the inner workings of the body, although it's not at all gruesome looking. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 30% | Activity: 7% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Live Arts](https://www.trendhunter.com/livearts) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Organic Textile Design:** Creating textile designs that mimic the movements and colors of the human body. - **Knitting Sculptures:** Using knitting techniques to create sculptural pieces that resemble organic forms. - **Wearable Art:** Fashioning garments that blur the line between art and clothing, inspired by human anatomy. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion and Apparel:** Innovative textile designs that merge art and fashion. - **Craft and DIY:** Exploring new techniques and materials for artistic knitting projects. - **Art and Design:** Pushing the boundaries of traditional art mediums through textile sculpture. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sculptural Knitted Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-knitted-objects.md) - [Arty Knitwear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arty-knitwear.md) - [Human Torso-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lene-bdker.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Knitted Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knit-series.md) - [Intricate Fiber Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threadwork-women-redefining-fiber-arts.md) - [3D-Knitted Chair Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-knitting1.md) - [Hand-Knit Sci-Fi Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handknit-scifi-sculpture.md) - [Neurodiversity-Exploring Textiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interwoven-project.md)
