My dress inspiration is from the coral reefs and the sea. Iconic representation was used to represent the themes of the dress. The organic shapes of the waves and the sea form the main shapes of the cutouts of the dress and the bubbles of the dress represent the coral reefs in the oceans. The colors of the dress also allude to the theme of the coral and the sea.
My dress concept is about how the coral reefs are dying due to humans. Over 50% of the world’s coral reefs may be destroyed by 2030 due to human related activities. Through the use of technology, I hope to portray that humans are causing damage to the coral reefs. Using the touch sensor, the corals on the dress would glow red, representing the damage that have been done to the corals by humans. The bubbles on the shoulder of the dress have thermoactive ink on them. When they are heated, they turn white, representing the coral bleaching that is happening around the world due to global warming. If the global warming continues, the coral would stay white and would not be able to survive.
