3D printed bow tie by monocircus

3D printed bow tie by monocircus 

made utilizing rapid prototyping techniques in polyamide plastic, the 3D printed bow tie by japanese design studio monocircus reinterprets the common fashion accessory, retaining a visual presence similar to that of its woven-textile counterpart. conceived in one piece instead of being fastened like a ribbon, the attachment slots right onto the button of any collared dress shirt. a checkered surface pattern creates an optical illusion, accentuating the three dimensional volume of the item.
