Futuristic Cleopatra

Authors: ,

Abstract

Exploring uses of industrial materials for elegant apparel was the problem in this design. The designer was inspired by the beauty and flexibility of materials found in heat ducts. The combination of nontraditional apparel related materials and traditional fabrication used for apparel were the focus of the problem for this futuristic design. In addition, traditional theatrical costuming of the ancient Egyptian period (Cleopatra style) was the source of inspiration.
