About
Zimin Wang（humanwear）, an outdoor sportswear designer, has enjoyed playing various sports since childhood. The designer was born in the hilly area of northern China, so she started skiing at a very young age. The outdoors will always give the designer energy and keep her enthusiastic about life, so she hopes to convey different sports spirit and energy through the design.
The White Opium in 2111‘
The work is about the design of a scenario centred on alpine skiing in the face of global warming. Some people call skiing the “white opium”——Seasonal, regional, exciting, and complex, ski enthusiasts can’t get enough of it, and even when they return to the city, they still reminisce about the white energy of skiing. Set in 2111, the snow season is even shorter and scarcer, and the lifespan of ski fashion items that have been sitting around for a long time has been shortened dramatically. In order to bring the charm and energy of the sport back to the city, I created a new snow season urban sports style. At the same time, it also emphasizes the protective style and sense of power.
The design applies a combination of Clo3d and traditional pattern-making techniques, urban style and vintage snowsuits style, resulting in a multi-wearable urban snowsuit design.
