A few designers that have used origami shapes in garments

Lianna Sheppard

I started looking at the work of Lianna Sheppard and found that her designs are based on the form and shape of 3 dimensional shapes. She  used different types of materials and fabrics to create different shapes and textures in her designs to make them interesting and to add to the effect of 3D garments




Issey Miyake
The 132.5 collection was inspired by the form of origami and the work of computer scientist Juan Miyani , he looked at how 2D shapes can be folded and created into 3D garments. The shapes he created within the garments unfolded into dresses, skirts and shirts.







These are just some of the different shapes and folds that Miyake used to create the 132.5 Collection
