What makes a great fashion collection? A strong design team? A fresh theme? A memorable runway show? Can the impact of a collection lie in the hands of a mathematical function?Designers at threeASFOUR, based in Chinatown, New York, recently released a video called JuliaSET promoting their Fall/Winter 2012 ready-to-wear collection, which draws inspiration from geometric functions. Gabriel Asfour, Angela Donhauser, Adi Gil, the masterminds behind threeASFOUR, first showed their latest collection at New York Fashion Week earlier this year. The F/W 2012 RTW line makes use of swirling, circular forms, as well as fractal-based accessories that are derived from a function that yields a set known as a Julia set—hence the film's title.Photo courtesy of threeASFOUR.Photo courtesy of threeASFOUR.Photo courtesy of threeASFOUR.Photo courtesy of threeASFOUR.JuliaSET was directed by Jessica Mitrani and co-produced by Sean Lennon and Charlotte Kemp Muhl. Currently, Manhattan's White Columns Gallery is screening the film as a part of its group exhibition, Do Your Thing.[via Style.com]@bmwertheim
