The coral themed garment was inspired by Ernst Haeckel’s Sea anemones prints. The use of textures and unique forms in his illustrations influenced me to design a dress that carries a soft and dreamy effect. The concept behind this dress is to address the environmental issue of the dying sea corals due to water pollution by fabric dye. As quoted from Eileen Fisher, “the textile industry is one of the largest polluters in the world”. In efforts to raise people’s awareness on this issue, my project contains no fabric dyes and instead, is replaced with recycled printed banner and led lights to bring colour into my dress. The dress reacts to human interaction by turning white when someone comes close to it. This mirrors the effect of human’s contributions to the pollution in the sea.
