Hoodie Origami: How do you wear your sweater?

By Angela Jung

Farewell, paper cranes! Hello, hoodie origami! Antonio Scarponi, founder of Conceptual Devices, has taken traditional Japanese origami to the fashion world. Any regular hoodie (and if you're from the West Coast, I know you must have tons) can become a laptop bag, baby carrier, pillow, backpack and strap bag! I kid you not.

Scarponi is actually an architect and has lectured at schools of architecture and design throughout Europe and the U.S. His work has also been showcased at galleries and museums internationally. So you know that your hoodie strap bag is engineered to carry your things and made to last.

It's simple, really! And you are sure to impress your friends by combining practicality with innovation.

Check out his YouTube Channel to learn how you can transform your hoodie. Learn more information from his web site.

How clever! I had to watch the video a few times to catch it and I'm still not sure where the woman's wallet went (the hood?). But now that you've used your belt as a shoulder strap, what's gonna keep you pants from falling?



Who knew something could be so outrageous.
