Dress 2

Built from modular slats of high-density foam and enclosed in thick woollen upholstery fabric often used for modernist furniture design, Dress2 can unite with its twin in several ways. The two can slot together like a jigsaw to trigger dramatic shards of light, used in the performance to cast shadows. One of the light sources comes from a hovering hat, which is suspended above the dress leaning from a reconfigurable pole, which sashays architecturally off the shoulder and the other comes from a hidden compartment in the skirt of the dress which allows the wearer to play with the shape and pattern of the light.
