Luminous Carmen

In this work, the designer applies RadianFabTM , which is a proprietary technology for flexible fabric display to the design of an evening dress. The inspiration for the design comes from the beautiful, passionate, and energetic gypsy girl character in Georges Bizet’s famous opera “Carmen”.

當今科技的進步為我們的世界帶來了許多光彩，設計師們將納米光導纖維的柔性織物顯示技術運用在了服裝上。此作品的靈感來自于比才的四幕舞歌劇“卡門”里灑脫而富有活力的吉普賽女郎。她光亮閃耀，婀娜多姿，像精靈一樣在人群中成爲焦點，給人强烈的視覺衝擊。
