Fashion is constantly innovating. It never stops evolving. The latest invention? A trench coat that changes color when touched! We tell you everything.
More and more creators are trying to innovate and offer original and unique pieces. In 2023, Coperni is launching the ball for new fashion technologies. After wowing the public during its spring-summer 2023 fashion show, with a spray-based dress, the brand launched into creating equally surprising bags! After creating a bag made of 99% air and 1% glass, another made from a meteorite and one made entirely of crystal, the French brand has established itself in the technological world.
But she’s not the only one trying out fashion innovation! Iris Van Herpen also uses different technologies to bring her creations to life. We all remember the dress worn by entrepreneur Mona Patel during the 2024 Met Gala.
This is also the case for a designer who is a little less known to the public: Christopher Esber. This Australian fashion designer, of Lebanese origin, has imagined a trench coat that changes color on contact with heat! In fact, it goes from burgundy to vermilion, just by wearing it. This piece is part of the brand’s fall-winter 2024-2025 collection.
Very quickly, the trench coat went viral on social networks! In addition to featuring fun new technology, this jacket features a perfect slim fit. That’s why fashionistas love it. It is available on the brand’s website at a price of 1,220 euros.
This isn’t the first time designers have played with colors. The Anrealage label used a similar technique for its fall-winter 2023/2024 show. Designer Kunihiko Morinaga explained that he used a photochromic fabric that changes color depending on the light!
