The inspiration

Alexander McQueen | Women's Spring/Summer 2011/ Runway Show
I discovered Alexander McQueen's work in 2011, when he dressed Lady Gaga, and his dresses appeared in the "Hunger Games" movies. The butterfly dress was my favorite. So, to my final project I´ll make a similar garment.

- The pattern of the dress is made up of small pieces with the same figure, resulting in a unique texture.
- I think the chest detail is the most interesting, because it adds volume with three-dimensional figures.

Kinetic Art

"I like butterflies but, I prefer Dragonflies"

My design will be inspired by dragonflies. Being another flying animal, I can use wings as a creative resource. Initially I wanted to make a kinetic sculpture to exhibit the result at the FAB ART in Puebla, but I was not very convinced. And then, I remembered that in 2019, Iris Van Herpen took inspiration from the kinetic sculptures American artist Anthony Howe for her collection at Élysée Montmartre in Paris for the city's Haute Couture fashion week.

So, I think I will make a textile piece inspired by kinetic art
