Design Description

Our dress represents our society’s relentless pursuit of perfection. We are blinded by the barrage of perfect media images and photo editing. We are constantly striving towards that blinding light of perfection. But it is false. This light will not lead us to perfection. Instead it blinds us to our real selves, not perfect but true. Sometimes you need to close the blinds and value our real true selves. The emergence from the inside of the cocoon, represents our self revelation. Not blinded by false light or shadowed by the constraints of perfection.
