Supermodel Coco Rocha Loves 3D Printing and Shapeways
Supermodel Coco Rocha and 3D Printing
Shapeways had a special visitor to their 3D printing factory in New York City: Supermodel Coco Rocha. Coco is interested in how 3D printing will change the world of fashion.
After learning how to program Shapeways’ 3D printers, Coco was entertained by stories of 3D printed fashion such as the gown for Dita Von Teese, the collection with Kimberly Ovitz and thousands of designs from the Shapeways community inspiring designers around the world.

3D Printed Kimberly Ovitz Jewelry Designs Come to Shapeways
3D printing marketplace Shapeways has partnered with Kimberly Ovitz on a new line of 3D printed jewelry.
The designs are inspired by the sleek look of female comic book crime fighters. Ranging from $35 to $95, the designs are available for sale at Shapeways and can be designed to custom fit the customer.
Ovitz’ new line was inspired by the idea of “natural defense,” which in practice means form-fitting jewelry that, in this case, looks like it was lifted right out of a comic book. The Coelom Bracelet and Squama Ring are similar – both wrap around the pointer finger and hand in a delicate spiral, and come in either stainless steel or flexible nylon. The bracelet extends a little further, wrapping around the hand completely before terminating at the wrist. The Thana Earcuff and Spicules Earhook are worn around the ear, and neither require piercings. The Spicules combined with the Prosoma Necklace look like they’d be a pretty solid duo if you’re planning on making the career jump to masked crime-fighter.
Below is a video featuring Kimberly Ovitz designs.
