Unmade are changing fashion design and manufacture. By controlling industrial knitting machines in a new way, the startup can make a different garment every time turning these machines into 3D printers for clothes, but using high quality, natural fibres instead. Launching this winter in Somerset House, Unmade gives customers the chance to remix thework of prominent artists and designers to create their dream jumper that is then made in front of them. Customers can also see their designs on models before sending to knit with Unmade’s unique preview technology.No-one else has been able to offer custom production in knitwear due to the high programming cost. Unmade’s patent-pending technologies remove this cost and makes one-off production possible at a similar cost to local mass production.Through Unmade, brands can then offer bespoke, customised or limited edition knitwear to their customers. Using the same machines as major brands such as Burberry or Benetton, Unmade is running factory trials early next year to prove their technologies at an industrial scale.Unmade’s long-term aim is to create a platform and marketplace through which brands and small designers can offer custom clothing to their customers and taking the mass custom production of knitwear to an industrial level. | $4M / Aug 08, 2018 | |
