Levitating Chrysalis Dress

The dress responds to a pure movement only dictated by the women’s steps impulsions, bringing movement to the dress to complete the regeneration. Technically, I used magnetic forces to create the visual effect that the regenerated skin could be lifted out of the body. I have also used the architectural technique of sections plans to « dive » deep into the psychic body and reveal the « real » inside body of the woman wearing the dress. The gradient cells print and the organza drape constructed in many layers around the section plan represent this metaphysical form of a rebirth from the ashes.
