Fabric Out of Milk, Tea, and Coffee Beans!


Milk, tea and coffee tend to stick together...but not like this. As the high-tech sector is taking off in making fashion more sustainable, other, more-humble, technologies are just as innovative -- and really, really cool. Case in point: Food products being turned into wearable commodities.

German microbiology-student-turned-designer Anke Domaske uses milk to make a an "Eco Milk Fiber" called QMilch. High-tech sports clothing company Virus uses recycled coffee beans for their Stay Warm line of cold-weather performance apparel. And the genius Suzanne Lee, fashion designer and TED Senior Fellow, has been making fabric and vegetable leather out of...get this...the fermented tea, kombucha.
