Malden Mills |
Malden Mills, the makers of PolarTec fabrics, challenged
the students in AMD 447: Functional Apparel Design to
come up with ideas for utilizing their innovative
electric textiles powered by lithium batteries. Malden
provided the fabrics and materials and the students
developed 14 prototypes from snowboarding jackets to
wearable accessories. The HEATME SCARF was developed by
students Michele Palmatier and Sarah Bokor. It is a
4-way reversible scarf that can be heated for the
wearer's thermal satisfaction.
