The Sirenic Pearl Dress is a key piece from my A Thin Line collection, where I delved into materials and sought to create a metaphor for movement through diverse textures. My favorite piece from this collection, the Siren Pearl Dress, embodies the stillness of mesmerizing beauty and the way it compels external movement.
​
This dress was born from an exploration of knitting techniques, where I experimented with incorporating pearls into the knit itself, creating a textured and luxurious surface that adds depth and complexity to the design. I carefully integrated these pearls, not just as embellishments, but as a way to enhance the tactile and visual experience of the piece. Additionally, I experimented with a gradient of coverage and varying pearl sizes, allowing the fabric to subtly shift in texture and form. This approach evokes a sense of organic beauty, with the pearls gradually becoming more concentrated in certain areas, enhancing the dress’s natural flow and rhythm.
