The return to the moon with the NASA’s Artemis 2024 Lunar mission is designed to navigate future space wear. 

My proposed collection explores how wearables on the International Space Station can be designed for comfortability, functionality, and aesthetics. 

Inspired by fractal designs and Zaha Hadid’s architectural structures I was drawn to create pieces that convey a sense of geometry and have organic qualities. In my beginning sketch work designs, my goal was to incorporate a sense of geometry though color blocking and piping to accent simplified shapes that resemble fractals. Functionality was also a key factor in my designing process and my proposed functional designs include: half moon rings on the jumpsuits to attach onto surfaces in microgravity, circular knitted patches in the knee and upper body areas for flexibility, “two in one” cargo style sweatpants that can unzip at the knee to also be worn as shorts, and large cargo pockets to store tools and other items needed. Utilizing the software CLO3D to create my final renderings, I was able to create a series of future space wearables with combinations of different color schemes based on the individual’s preference.
