During my M.A. studies in ‘Shenkar‘ College of Engineering and Design, I participated in a wearable course in the fashion design department. There I created an allergic dress that reacts to penetration to the wearer personal space. The dress changed its' pattern in reaction to the people around it. The dress reaction was generated by the hitting of an underlined cloth. This led to a change of pattern in the textile I designed and printed using thermo-chromic ink. The dress changed its appearance when crowded. The change faded gradually.
In retrospective, I will be using this method, I invented as a leading principle for future installations.
