Malcolm Harris We feel that the union between Stylelikeu, a burgeoning social network that celebrates the beauty and creative spirit of individuals for their differences, and Malcolm Harris, a designer who unites style with social consciousness speaks for itself in regards to breaking down ignorance.

Mireia Solsona studied architecture in Barcelona and pursued fashion as a hobby. Then the housing market crashed and with little work for architects, she decided to fall back on her hobby. But she didn't want to just create one more clothing brand. Inspired by the Ancient Greeks and their brand of Slow Fashion, she began to work on an idea for a multi-functional clothing line. Fascinated by the Greeks' ability to turn a simple piece of cloth into dozens of outfits, Solsona began creating geometric-shaped pieces of clothing that could be twisted, turned, flipped and folded to create entirely new looks. Today, her Mimètik clothing line is in constant motion. A cylindrincal piece of fabric converts between a dress and a top with a morphing neckline. A little red dress can be worn backward or forward, with caped sleeves or a bunched neck. A cone-shaped fabric flip-flops between a skirt a shirt (both are reservable). The most impressively morphing piece is a particularly Grecian shape that can be tied, twisted and wrapped to create ten different looks.

SCOTTEVEST, INC. (SeV), the industry leader in functional fashion, released a web commercial parody of Apple's iPod commercial. Apple's commercial shows a dancer in silhouette with the iPod's signature white wires flying around. SeV's parody humorously portrays the inherent danger of dancing with wires dangling. The dancer gets tangled in the wires and trips. He then dons SeV's patented Technology Enabled Clothing® (TEC), which manages the wires through hidden conduits, and then dances with increased energy as the beat of the music intensifies. The commercial ends with an endorsement from a surprising source, Steve Wozniak, Co-Founder of Apple and SeV customer. Woz was actually the inspiration for SeV's commercial. When Scott Jordan, SCOTTEVEST CEO and Founder, discovered that Steve Wozniak was an online customer, he initiated an email correspondence. Much to his surprise, Woz replied within minutes. Scott asked how he had heard about SeV, Woz said his son is fan of the clothing line and added, "The SeV is the perfect accessory for an iPod."

University of Minnesota professor Lucy Dune discusses how fashion is a spectacle - and how by integrating more technology into clothing, the fashion industry can play up that fantasy and make even more dynamic and responsive clothing. But that also transitions into how researchers like herself can make more functional clothing. By using technology, researchers hope to be able to someday create small sensors that will do things like regulate heat in winter coats and maybe even create t-shirts that can communicate with MP3 players.

Our ecofriendly product company, Recycling Zychal, makes stylish and functional softgoods and apparel from upcycled broken umbrellas. Some of our products include ecofriendly dog rain coats, an updated version of the traditional Polish babushka called The HOOD and even Organic Cat Nip Filled Kitty Toys that help raise money for City Kitties Rescue here in Philadelphia, where the green company has its headquarters. We collect broken umbrellas from the streets after a storm and we also receive many broken umbrella donations from people across the country who don't want to see it go to the landfill. After collection, we delicately and strategically strip each and every broken umbrella (alongside of our 3 models Jake, Betty and Hurley, our pug family) from its metal frame so we can take them to be cleaned. Once clean, we transform these landfill bound broken umbrellas into stylish, functional ecofriendly products that are handcrafted with strict attention to detail and are made with impeccable quality to ensure that the product's second life is long and lovely! If you would like to donate your broken umbrella to us, please contact info@recyclingzychal.com or recyclingzychal@gmail.com for details! Thank you for watching, and if you liked this video or what we are doing, please feel free to share! (less)
