Couture Dress Projection

Got tired of a plenty of staff in your wardrobe that rapidly becomes out of fashion or doesn’t suit with each other?
French fashion designer Franck Sorbier solved this problem in his way in his collection Fall/Winter 2012-2013. He represented 14 dresses… in one!

His collection became a bright blend of fashion and technology. It consisted of only two models — one in a black, fitted dress with an elaborate, pointy hat and the other with a simple, white ball gown.
While it may sound unusual for a high-fashion show to consist of only two clothing pieces, the white garment actually served as a canvas for projections, transforming the ensemble into numerous outfits.


Sorbier's inspired display was as much a fashion show as it was a piece of performance art or a theatrical light installation. The presentation followed the dark fairy tale of Donkeyskin, which entails the story of a king, a grieving widower, who has promised his late wife that he shall only remarry a woman of equal beauty, which turns out to be his daughter.
In an effort to avoid the marriage, the princess seeks the guidance of a fairy godmother who advises her to request the impossible — gowns that are the color of the sky, as bright as the sun, and the color of the moon.
