Faceted Avian Sweatshirts

The T-Shirt Issue's Sweatshirts Take Cues from Muybridge Animation

— February 4, 2014 — Fashion
The 'A Work in Motion T-Shirts' by the T-Shirt Issue takes inspiration from the animal studies Eadweard Muybridge conducted in the 1800s with stop frame photo animation.

For this project, the forms of a regular sweatshirt have been morphed into dynamic sculptures that seem to pull the fabric in a certain direction and create the illusion of movement and flight.

The three different shirt designs from the T-Shirt Issue vary slightly, which is evident in the changes in the position of the bird's head and wings. The Muybridge-inspired shirts beautifully manage to capture the motions of a bird and it is as if the three different moments in time were frozen by pressing "pause" and "play" buttons.
Trend Themes
1. Dynamic Sculpture Fashion - The integration of dynamic, sculptural elements into fashion creates opportunities for disruptive innovation in garment design and manufacturing.
2. Motion-inspired Clothing - Clothing that captures the illusion of movement and motion opens up possibilities for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry, blending art and functionality.

2. Garment Manufacturing - Garment manufacturers can explore new techniques and materials to produce motion-inspired clothing that combines functionality with artistic expression.
3. Art and Animation - The art and animation industry can collaborate with fashion designers to inspire and create morphed forms in fashion, bringing unique animated concepts to life in wearable garments.
