SAN FRANCISCO, June 17, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Art by Physicist, a Silicon Valley tech-fashion startup, focused on sustainable, electronically enhanced fashion for women, has launched its new campaign on Kickstarter today, unveiling a debut collection that includes a solar-powered dress, a self-heating reversible coat, a WiFi-programmable dress, customizable LED fabric designs and Bluetooth accessories.

Founded by physicist and artist Dr. Kitty Yeung, and launched in 2019, the brand combines cutting-edge wearable technology, with one-a-kind hand designed art prints that celebrate the beauty of science, nature, and space.

to build a smart collection that would function for women’s lifestyles, tastes and make fashion-tech more accessible

Art by Physicist's new collection features original hand-drawn paintings created by Dr. Yeung, and collaborations with ARMOR Solar Power Films, DFRobot, NovaCentrix and Loomia, to offer an innovative clothing line that is not just stylish but presents solution-focused, smart designs that integrate with your smartphone and your wardrobe.

Inspired by her career in STEM and motivated by the lack of women designers developing tech-enabled clothing, founder Dr. Kitty Yeung, launched the brand to expand wearable tech options for women that included beautiful and functional designs they could use every day.

"As a fashion-lover, artist, and a woman in STEM, I'm driven to find ways to intersect my passions," said Dr. Yeung. "While wearable tech has come a long way, product lines are still very outdoor-focused and male-centric. I wanted to create a brand that would challenge the status quo, but where I could also use my experience to build a smart collection that would function for women's lifestyles, tastes and make fashion-tech more accessible."

Mission-driven to encourage more women into STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math), Art by Physicist's Kickstarter campaign will donate part of the profits to platforms supporting women and girls in STEAM programs. The brand is also keeping its patterns open source. Its tutorials, patterns and instructions on building wearable technologies can be found on http://www.kittyyeung.com

Visit Art by Physicists' Kickstarter page to pre-order collection items, meet the founder and learn more about the brand that is making fashion-tech accessible.
