Every year, Europeans discard tons of milk deemed unsafe for human consumption. Now, a German company is turning the spilled milk into high-end fashion, CNN reported.
据美国有线电视新闻网报道，欧洲人每年都会倒掉大量不适合人们饮用的过期牛奶。如今，德国一家公司将这些过期牛奶变成了高档时装。
Anke Domaske, a biochemist turned fashion designer, is the inventor of QMilch - a fabric made entirely of milk.
安可•多玛斯科原来是一名生物化学家，现在转行做了时装设计师，开创了QMilch服装品牌——该服装面料完全是用牛奶制成的。
The fabric is created from milk which is allowed to ferment before it is turned into a powder. It is then heated and mixed with other natural ingredients and turned into yarn.
牛奶面料的制作流程是：先从奶粉中提取出干酪素，然后进行加热处理，再混入其他一些自然配料，制成纺纱。
QMilch has a similar feel to silk, and is marketed as a luxury fiber.
QMilch有丝绸般的质感，但是市场售价非常昂贵。
