Nightcap
The seam creates weak points where small rips expand to follow the profile of the light.The rips remove density from the fabric creating areas where more or less light will escape. An interesting analog diffusion is created.
The effect is novel and quickly identifiable; rips in tights. Feelings of carefree dancing and the fleeting last moments of the night.The runs create a look that in its own right is beautiful despite the typical association of brokeness. Recontextualizing an accident into an opportunity. A mistake made to feel chic.
Nightcap is currently being explored further, both in scale and color palette. Pictured below is the first functional piece.
