Mathematics Meets Fashion: Thurston's Concepts Inspire Designer

An ABC News report, "Fashion and Advanced Mathematics Meet at Miyake: Fashion and advanced mathematics collide at Japanese label Issey Miyake," generated a lot of interest in the mathematics and fashion communities. Drawings by William Thurston (a pioneer in the field of low-dimensional topology, 1982 Fields Medal winner, and professor of mathematics and computer science at Cornell University) inspired designer Dai Fujiwara (Issey Miyake, Inc.).
