Peut-Porter

Peut-Porter are a London-based Design Collective who develop participatory live-experiences. Headed by Alexa Pollmann and Bine Roth, the studio works with fashion, textile and silversmithing techniques and crafts wearable artefacts that expand the realms of wearable technology, meandering the fine line between gadget and garment, costume and avatar, and the interdependence between self and other.

Peut-Porter’s work is exhibited and performed internationally and has shown at the Venice Biennale, Design Museum London, Sadler’s Wells Theatre, Museum of London, Jerusalem Design Week, BFI London, Deutsches Technikmuseum, De Doelen Theatre Rotterdam – amongst others.

Alexa Pollmann is a design-researcher with a background in fashion and an MA in Design Interactions (RCA). As Subject Leader in Wearable Technology at London College of Fashion (UAL) she works closely with the MA Fashion Futures in reimagining and expanding fashion practice.

Bine Roth is a material specialist and jewellery designer who graduated from the MA Textiles Mixed Media (RCA). Bine is a tutor (research) at the RCA, where she teaches on the MA Textile Design and researches smart textiles.
