Metamorphosis (2013)

Cereph Chen Bing Quan, Singapore

Description

Created as part of an elective module, the theme of this dress is Metamorphosis. Cotton buds, by themselves fragile, are wired together to form a stiff and dark armor. The dress describes the change that people undergo when faced with harsh reality, forging an armor to protect themselves. The organza dress, coupled with softly twinkling LEDs, serve to portray the sensitive and delicate nature of one’s dreams and emotions.
