14 DAY TRIAL // San Francisco-based graphic designer and illustrator Natalie Walsh has created a stunning dress covered in fiber optic filaments that make it sparkle especially in the dark.
The fiber optic dress is the ultimate ball gown of the future, so if you were looking for an outfit to make you stand out of the crowd, look no further, as Walsh’s creation could be the right option for you.
The rows of fiber optic filaments are swinging and flowing freely, just like the fabric trim of a normal dress, giving the impression of comfort and pleasure.
Walsh, who has a fashion design degree, says she found inspiration for the mesmerizing dress in an artistic performance piece by Ants on a Melon, Distractify informs. After discovering the hypnotic beauty of fiber optics, she decided to incorporate fiber optics in one of her projects, and that’s how this amazing wearable light show has been born.
Made of 360 glowing fiber optic filaments, the dress is especially captivating at night, when the lights put on a real fireworks show.
The designer posted detailed instructions on how to make your own fiber optic dress on Instructables. So, if you want to turn heads and glow in a darkened club, you now know what to wear.
