The immersion of humans into nature is growing at faster paces with new forms of bio-engineering, mimicry and lab-grown design. Mold generally describes a superficial often woolly growth produced especially on damp or decaying organic matter or on living organisms by a fungus. Over the past years, int has been explored far beyond its reputation of rotting and dirtiness. It has been discovered to be an efficient source for bio-based materials, fertilizer or sustainable phasic-degrader to clean the environment. Inspired by the prosperous space of fungi and micro-cultures, the molding aesthetic impacts fashion from textile washings and finishings to print experiments and knitwear. Defining a symbiosis with nature, new fashion represent an invasive nature to dominate, envelop, permeate and transform things. The beauty of bacterial microcosm certainly pushes to re-invent aesthetics and beauty-standards to shape a forward-looking and ground-breaking concept of aesthetic.
