What do you wear for your first trip to space?
If you are like most people, perhaps whatever space clothes or astronaut, the company (or the government agency) that fly with it. However, if you are Lauren Sanchez-a journalist, a pilot, the author of the children’s book, the philanthropist and the preacher of Jeff Bezos, the second harshest man on this planet-you have another idea. You think, “Let’s re -imagine a flight suit.”
“Usually, as you know, these claims are made for a man,” Ms. Sanchez recently said in a video call from the West Coast. “Then they are designed to suit a woman.” Or not designed: it had to be canceled in 2019, planned in 2019, because NASA had no spaces that suit two women. (Instead sent one woman and one man.)
But Mrs. Sanchez is part of the first female trip since Russia sent Valentina Terichkova on a single trip in 1963. She will rise on a blue origin journey with pop star (Katie Perry), a journalist (Gaeel King), Athone/Actar (Amanda Ngwin, Aisha Pow) and Protecer Movie (Kerian). She said that feeling yourself is what makes you feel strong, and you should not have to sacrifice that because the space was – well, a male area often. Even if you are a tourist, instead of a full astronaut.
Five months ago, Mrs. Sanchez contacted Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim, the founders of the brand Mons, who are also creative managers of Oscar de la Renta (Mr. Garcia and Mrs. Kim, made Mrs. Sanchez from Gala Gala Oscar). She wanted to know if they would work with blue origin, Mr. Bezos Space Company.
“I was like: immediately!” Mr. Garcia said on the zoom.
The result of their cooperation will be revealed on Monday, when Mrs. Sanchez and crew climbed to the Blue Association in West Texas, and then set out on their journey that lasted approximately 11 minutes to the Kármán line and in zero gravity.
“I think the suits are elegant, but they also bring a little spice to space,” said Ms. Sanchez.
When Gayel King tried her salary, she loved her. I believed that the claims appear “professional and feminine at the same time.”
She said that, when it came to space, “was something we have never seen before.”
Origin Monse Blue suits, which were produced by creative figures engineering, looks like an intersection between “Star Trek” (at the top) and Elvis clothing that wore in his years Vigas (at the bottom) and is made of flame -resistant ne niperin, instead of the original polyester fabric of the original, and the Suits Blue origin, as shown before MR. Help design these allowances as well.)
However, “We didn’t really know where to start,” said Mr. Garcia. “There is no precedent. All references are men of men.”
Since the blue origin publications do not go into space, Mr. Garcia and Mrs. Kim did not need to integrate the life support system for a classic space pioneer, but they still have to work within the technical specifications.
Mr. Garcia said: “Simplicity was important, comfort and appropriate.” “But we also wanted something that was a little dangerous, like Motogros clothes. Or a ski suit.
Ms. Kim added: “I personally want to look very small and equipped in my clothes.”
They fought the ideas back and forth with Mrs. Sanchez. “We have held a meeting on what Lauren will wear underwear,” said Mr. Garcia.
Skims! Mrs. Sanchez responded.
The result is the body of the body, with a pressure layer, a light mandarin collar, a dual -zipped interface that can look like an open waist, belt, and clouds on the side of all the calf, so that the younger can create a reckless effect according to their taste. “You will be able to press or decipher pressure,” said Mr. Garcia. (Mrs. King said she loved the idea of the bell.)
The suits also feature a darker and doors -doors on the aspects that work to shade the body, such as almost TROROPE L’Eeil. Mrs. Kim said that there are small pockets on the arms, but the leg pockets were dropped because they were very huge. Each member of the crew was 3D, so that cases could be submitted to their measurements exactly.
Mr. Garcia told Mrs. Sanchez: “I have placed almost a corset in your suit, because I know you will not be against it,” Mrs. Garcia told Mrs. Sanchez.
She said, “Maybe I will not own.” But “we will be in gravity. So we must be able to move.” When Mrs. Sanchez tried the first model for the first time, she said: “I was extending. I was curved back. I was like,” well, let’s make sure that it is not divided back in space. “
“The curse looks good. You ascend in space looks hot,” said Mr. Garcia when he saw the lawsuit he thought.
Amanda Nagwin described the claims as “revolutionary”. She said that clothes revolve around identity and acting, and by allowing women to look like women, the claims are a statement that “women belong to space.”
Blue Orige is not the first private space company to avoid a fashion brand to help design outfit. Axiom Space also works with Prada on its Spacestation clothes for its mobile unit, known as the lawsuit worn by NASA astronauts when they walk on the moon during the ARTEMIS III mission in 2026 (the initial models were detected last October). Likewise, Elon Musk worked with fashion designer Jose Fernandez, the man behind “The Fantastic Four” and “The Avengers”, on Spacex suits.
Regarding the reason that makes fashion designers very common in the group of astronomical physics, Mr. Garcia said: “If we make the suits look friendly and like something that anyone can wear, the space may feel a little dimension.” “They want to buy this space to go to the gym.”
In fact, he continued, Mrs. Kim was thinking that they had “created an office on Mars.” Either way, he was joking. Type of.
It turned out that Mr. Garcia, Mrs. Kim and Mrs. Sanchez were already working on something else for the blue origin, related to “The Moon”. The Blue Asset was chosen by NASA to develop the human landing system for ARTEMIS V mission to the moonBut Mrs. Sanchez will not say whether Mons will have to do so.
It was, however, excited to give the space a new look.
She said, “This is not what you call” naturally “, but six women are not sent to space. “If you want to do Glam, great; if you don’t, great.” The point was to choose everyone.
Then she quoted something that she said that Katie Perry told her: “We put the” donkey “in the astronaut.
