Lauren Bowker's Maganificient Color Changing Clothes

Watch and be amazed as this marvelous headdress changes color when engulfed in fire. Alchemist Lauren Bowker presents her innovative idea of heat-responsive garments. These articles of clothing are made with fabric that will change color with the adapting climate and seasons.

The garments are made from overlapping hand-stitched leather that encompass the wearer, creating a shell. As the heat from the fire touches the fabric, colors begin to spread across the surface. Once the flames die down you can see the shiny, discreet green and purple tones that shine like the feathers on a bird.

This far-reaching collection includes many styles of garments that are meant to react with the movement of air, adjusting environment and varying climates, as imitated in the video using fire. This innovative ink will even react when people come close or walk past! In the summer, bright eccentric colors will emerge and dull with the wind to become a solid black once again. In the winter the pieces will remain black until a gust of wind hits them, shifting the colors slightly.
