Squeeze The Orange presents 1.75 Planets: Dressing the Future, a dress made from organic and textile waste. Exhibited on a mannequin, it integrates biomaterials, a biodigester, solar panels, and a fog net, envisioning how fashion can adapt in times of resource scarcity.
Beyond aesthetics: dressing the future
1.75 Planets: Dressing the Future explores what it means to dress in a world where Earth’s resources are no longer abundant. Today, humanity consumes the equivalent of 1.75 planets per year, exceeding the Earth’s regenerative capacity and pushing us towards environmental collapse. This project calls for a radical shift in how we live, produce, and consume.
The design is both an artistic expression and a speculative vision of the future. It is crafted from biomaterials created with orange peel, combined with recycled textile waste. At its core lies a biodigester that decomposes organic matter to generate heat for the body. The hood incorporates small solar panels to capture energy, while the cape carries a fog net (atrapanieblas) to collect water from the air — a powerful reminder that in the future, even water may be scarce and precious.
Redefining Fashion, Redefining Priorities
By merging waste, energy processes, and natural cycles, 1.75 Planets: Dressing the Future becomes a visual and sensory reminder of the urgent need to redefine our priorities. It transcends aesthetics to embrace responsibility, inviting us to ask: Do we really need this, or is it time to rethink how we live in harmony with our environment?
