Inspired by Zendaya’s Met Gala Cinderella dress, my team of 3 set out to create a modern version through the use of fiber optics, LEDs, and a circuit playground. My role was to construct the garment by hand and code the LED lights to reflect a light pattern.
The garment features a corset top with hand stitched grommets and an LED strip sewn inside. The skirt features three layers of tulle fabric with ribbon detailing. It sits on top of the fiberoptics powered by individual LED bulbs, which are soldered onto copper tape and powered by a battery.
