The dress of the season is definitely Alina Ene's digital 3D printed dress. Her collection features stunning 3D digital photographs, made exclusively for this occasion. Alina Ene collaborated with Romanian Photographer Dan-Andrei Paraschiv to bring the fabric to life.
The images are made with a special technique called light painting. Also known as light drawing, it's a photographic technique of long exposure that catches the track of light by moving a hand-held light source in a darkened space. The light tells an intricate story, transposed on the fabric. The 3D prints combine the light painting technique with the 3D effect, but they are enhanced by the human figure, transformed by light.
The designer pairs the unusual prints with unconventional design and innovative cuts. She has acquired practical and theoretical skills by completing a Bachelor's Degree in Design at the University of Arts in Bucharest, with a major in Fashion Design. She also got her Master's degree at the same University.
