The concept of this dress was to create a delicate lace dress for special occasions combining aesthetics with technology, digitizing of the patterns and laser cutting. The feeling of happiness, elegance, and romance derived from the white lace wedding gowns were transferred into a wearable dress by designing a repeated lace-like fabric combining a damask-inspired pattern and a punched oval pattern using illustrator software.
The design of the lace-like fabric contributes to the field of textile and apparel design in that this is an innovative application to replace existing textile process for the lace fabric. As a result, the dress looks more elegant with the glossy surface of the lace-like fabric than with the knitted or crochet lace fabric.
