Ever turned a simple cat photo into a photography masterpiece with Instagram filters? Now, elevate your style game by printing your favorite shots—of pets like Robert, gourmet meals, or even selfies—directly onto clothing from top brands like Uniqlo and Adidas.
Following Nike and Adidas's customizable shoes in 2013, 2014 ushered in a new era of photo-printed apparel. We're talking premium designs with artistic effects that transform everyday images into wearable art, far beyond basic prints on plain tees.
The idea is simple yet brilliant: Love snapping restaurant dishes for Instagram to make friends envious? Starting in August, use the Photo Print app to transfer your "foodgasm" pics straight onto Adidas ZX Flux shoes. Opt for landscape shots for a more sophisticated vibe. Filters like Nashville, Walden, Toaster, or Earlybird turn even mishaps into stunning visuals—perfect for showing off at your feet.
Society's embrace of personalized style has never been more exciting.
Launching this Sunday, Uniqlo's UTme! app for Android and iPhone lets you shake your phone like a pro artist. Transform photos, phrases, or drawings into dynamic designs with a cut-out effect, then print on crisp tees.
Channel Jackson Pollock's drip technique or Beyoncé's flair with every shake. The stylized results position you as a fashion innovator, gallery-ready alongside other users' creations.
We tried it ourselves—with mixed results, but plenty of fun:
