Susan Lee: Biocouture



The other week I attended a lecture from Susan Lee hosted at SAIC.  The garments pictured above are created from a film created by yeast batches started from tea and sugar.   Susan Lee is a Senior Research Fellow with Central Saint Martin and works in the Fashion Design department.  What is unique to Lee is that she does not work as a design professor, but seems to carry on with her research project and working with graduate students whom are also interested in designing their own contemporary textiles as well.









Here you can see mid process the beginning of the 'skin' developing.
