Issey Miyake A-Poc

Finally, some press coverage about the fashion concept I love the most more than anything in the world, way more than my thesis project! I wish I read about this earlier, the Businessweek article is from April! of last year! Waaht? Oops.
Last Year's *new* A-POC product
Sigh, if this was a high end electronic hardware product, A-POC wouldn't be as obscure as it is. It is basically a production method of clothing where no-sew clothing is programmed into a computer that weaves or knits the clothing so the seams are already in the fabric. So all you do is cut it open and wear it to your customization. Minimal labor, minimal production, optimistic view of the clothing of the future.
