About Gem Of The World Disseny de vestuari

Gem of the World és un vestit de carnaval inspirat en les Illes Caiman. El color blanc evoca la sorra blanca com la pols i les aigües cristal·lines de les tres illes. La forma d'ala fa referència als milions de turistes que volen cap al Carib cada any. El vestit està fet a mà amb teixits com l'elastà i la puntilla, amb lluentons i plomes com a ornaments. Les parts esculpides estan reforçades amb filferro metàl·lic i unides mitjançant una tècnica especial. El vestit es va crear a Seven Mile Beach, amb una vista directa a l'oceà, per ressaltar la bellesa natural i l'entorn marí de les illes.

Production Technology
This design was handmade from scratch, using a combination of various fabrics such as spandex, lace, and other embellishments such as sequins and feathers. The foundation that created the sculpted piece is framed with metal wire and bonded using a special technique.
Design Challenge
The hardest part was the time and effort to sculpt the design with the metal wire. This took an extensive period of time to sculpt, frame, and secure before the fabric base could be applied.
Research
This design was created on Seven Mile Beach in the Cayman Islands. The designer's view each morning created the visuals that underpinned the design. The piece was created with a direct view of the ocean to inspire the design. The designer has spent many years observing this part of the Cayman Islands.
Inspiration
The Cayman Islands, which are three small islands in the Caribbean, considered a top tourist destination in the region, inspired this design. These three islands' natural beauty attracts millions of tourists every year for their pristine beaches and healthy marine environment. The predominant white color of the costume represents that the crystal-like water, the powder white sands, and the purity of the Cayman Islands.
Project Duration
The project started in July 2018 and was completed in Dec 2019 in the Cayman Islands.
