Each morning we select an outfit meant to suit our mood and our plans. What if our clothes could seamlessly morph with us as our attitudes and activities change throughout the day? We created Awakened Apparel; one of the first shape-changing fashions to employ pneumatically actuated origami. Our prototype draws from diverse disciplines including soft robotics and fashion to present a design vision that advances the growing field of dynamic interactive garments. We explore technical and fabrication approaches for shape-changing technology held close to the body and identify areas for further innovation.
