Anouk Wipprecht is fearless in her approach to fashion tech, and this is apparent in her designs, from dresses that protect the wearer via concealment of smoke or even attack by arachnid legs.
Her latest, the HeartBeatDress, takes a new perspective in exploring the internal and external human connection. Featuring a Swarovski necklace that doubles as a heartbeat monitoring sensor, the HeartBeatDress not only demonstrates an incredible combination of 3D printed fashion design and technology, but also the vulnerability of the wearer as their mood is on display, whether relaxed or excited.
