In all seriousness...
what should I make with the wavy variant? 🤔
I fully expected everyone to vote for the straight version, so I just went ahead with it lol. 🙈
The 3D printed skirt is built from straight Elora modules and connected with pearls from @trimmingshopuk — printed in @elegoo white TPU on the @artillery3dofficial Sidewinder X2.
Exciting news: the files are now live on @Thangs3D ! 🎉 I’ve just joined and will be uploading a lot more designs in the coming weeks (it’s quite the task hahaha).
Who’s tempted to try this one? 👀

Lately I’ve been intrigued with using eyelets as connection mechanism.
This is the first of probably a series of explorations of what is possible with this technique. 👀
Eyelets and the Green Machine hand press are all from @trimmingshopuk 💪
The 3D printed fabric is made with @cookie.cad ‘s Dark Magic 95A TPU🫶
The file is now live on @thangs3d for you to download + build your own!

🔐 PS: This version fits S/M (waist ~70cm, bust ~90cm) and isn’t easily size-adaptable — if you’d like a custom size, email me ♥️
Printed on the @artillery3dofficial SideWinder x2 3D printer.

We’re thrilled to announce our win in the Fashion Tech category of the @3dpioneerschallenge with @variableseams 🌟 This challenge pushes the boundaries of additive manufacturing, emphasizing a “collaborative mindset” in #innovation, #design, and #sustainability.
From 25 countries and 5 continents, 43 finalists presented their projects. Our award-winning flexible, ready-to-wear garments made with Balena’s proprietory FlexTex3D technology, underpinned by our fully compostable BioCir®flex3D material, showcases durability and wearability, marking a new era in fabric design and regeneration through a fully circular model.
It was a privilege to collaborate with @variableseams on this project. Brigitte is a force to be reckoned with 🚀 Thank you @3dpioneerschallenge and @rapid.tech3d for this opportunity and recognition.
Congratulations to all the winners! 🚀 💫

3D printed skirt - part 1 🤩
I’ve been thinking about what project to make next, and the one most pulling my attention is a second iteration of the netted skirt made from Sylta modules.
When I wore it for the first time, some of the connections popped open which was such a pity cause it styles well and is comfortable to wear.
Prototype printed on @snapmakerinc U1 with @overture3dfilament transparant purple 95A TPU and gold 2mm eyelets from @trimmingshopuk
Creating jewellery is so much fun (now)!!

Three months ago I downloaded Blender, wanting to learn more about organic 3D modelling. It’s something I’ve been resisting learning, since it’s so different from what I usually do. Like I’d have to start from zero again. And after two hours of googling I was able to make a box… not joking. 😅
This is the usual learning curve, and I’d say the reason people abandon 3D modelling. BUT, I’ve noticed that if you can create cool stuff whilst learning it’s so much more fun. That’s how Tripo AI can really help, it will give you a base shape to start building and learning from. 🤩
My tips:
👉 Describe the object as a standalone artefact, not something interacting with a body.
👉 Only describe what you want the model to create, things like ‘avoid, remove, no’ seem to work less well.
I knoooow these questions are gonna come, so:
Test rings printed on @bambulab_official H2D with @3dhojor_official light yellow PLA. Creativity made possible on @apple MacBook Pro, fine tuning the 3D model on @nomadsculpt And finally the rings 3D printed in silver are ordered via @thangs3d Print on Demand.

Most of the time I’m about fashion, but I do have a huge love for anything innovative. And this printer really captured my attention, never seen rotating nozzles. 🧐

This month is your last chance to go see the 𝘔𝘢𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘥: 𝘙𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘥𝘢𝘺 at @ngvmelbourne
The exhibition explores how designers across industries are reshaping the products and systems that shape our daily lives. Transforming them into solutions that are better for people and the planet.
Very honoured (and slightly pinching myself) that my collaboration with @balena.science is part of this brilliant selection of designers.

Biggest lesson I learned in my first year as freelancer:
You get to know yourself in a different way. Before I may have known my weaknesses, but there was always a manager and teammates to fill the gaps.
If you work on your own, there is no safety net. You need to manage yourself and the gaps.
Does this should familiar?! 🙈
In my stubborn case, my gut often knew I should decline, but because I thought ‘it would be fun’ or ‘it’s a good opportunity’ I’d make promises and plan it in regardless. The unrealistic planning means I only achieved about half I set out to do.
For example, many videos filmed and scripted never made it. And with this last video in my reflection series I’m letting it go.
It’s a new year and we start again, this time planning in buffers so I don’t stress myself out the same way.
That is my January goal for 2026.
Let me know what yours is? 💪🥂
