‘Deception’ Teaser
I am fascinated by the acts of blending in, deception and visual illusion. I love the feeling of wonder as I unravel how something works, looks or is created. I worked to reflect that feeling in these designs.

I created a classical flexible silhouette as the base for a futuristic statement-making design, then created the masks using the papier-mache technique on chiffon fabric. The pattern was sewn from the sides only, and folded inside under the arms.
Process & Sketches
The design doubles as a dress and a jacket, which allows it to be worn by anyone. Its structure also enables it to fit a wide range of people. Imagine the juxtaposition of the faces of the wearers with the faces on the design itself, if any.
