The fascinating works by Dutch designer Iris Van Herpen capture the imagination. Her dresses are airy, light, the form is created by complex pleats, buffs and various techniques. The peculiarity of her work is that she combines computer modeling of clothes with handmade work. She often uses 3D modeling programs and 3D printers to create dresses and other outfits.

Iris Van Herpen turns to electroplating, covers leather straps with foil or a thin layer of metal, and then creates his masterpieces from them. Such things turn into shimmering objects from another world.

Usually they look incredibly cool, resembling the outfits of fantasy characters, space animals, huge jellyfish from the ocean floor and much more. Some Iris Van Herpen dresses seem to simulate the effect of electromagnetic waves on a person with the help of sophisticated couture techniques, others turn the model into a jellyfish queen.

Different people can see different incarnations in Iris Van Herpen's works, and this is why her collections are beautiful. Iris herself says, "Couture is my natural state, and prêt-à-porter is already a development. With the help of prêt-à-porter I'm looking for the ability to replicate all the inventions".
