Wrinkling vs. long‐wavelength instability envelope for multi‐layered soft composite: Predictive analytical and finite element models are presented to reveal the instability mechanics governing reversible wrinkling of interfacial layers. The biomimetic guidelines for the design of reversible, tunable, and multi‐functional layered soft composites with transforming interfacial layers are developed and verified via 3D printed prototypes.
