Mengze is a Shanghai-based artist and the founder of the digital couture brand Supramolecule Lab in 2021. Born in the post-epidemic era, Supramolecule is eager to optimize the fashion industry system through a completely sustainable digital way, perform the cultural communication function of clothing more fully and fairly, and reduce the excessive production and use of physical clothing. Mengze is adamant that cyber fashion, and the uncharted power of digital manufacturing, will transform the industry as we know it.
Multidimensional, decentralized, digital is a nonlinear prediction of future fashion. The property of clothing is constantly evolving under the change of technology. The relationship between clothing and human body may be separated from the relationship between objects and people. Thus, there are three stages of clothing in the future: intelligence -- the ultimate function of wearing; Symbiosis -- genetic modification parasitic on the human body, clothing becomes part of the human body; Independence -- "clothes" separate from human existence, move spontaneously, grow and multiply.
