Creating this ornamental material on the scale of the body and drawing a sculptural silhouette was a real challenge for Invenio Flory. The studio and lab teams combined savoir-faire, technical invention and chemical development. Invenio Flory used one of its exclusive processes, Flexi Exprimo®, and pushed its limits. It was the interweaving of all our design and engineering knowledge and skills that made it possible to design and create these pieces.
The bra tops, skirts and dresses are made in 3D, in a single piece of silicone with a liquid shine. To accompany most of the show's looks, the studio designed accessories with the same chain motif: belts, bracelets, necklaces and trims, and even eyeglass chains.
