Sense Move
Sense Move is a light emitting costume designed for dancers. The costume folds into geometric shapes that follow the movement of the body, forming a kinetic sculpture on stage. Light effects express changing emotions. A slow fade suggests breathing, and a flash suggests excitement. A sensing glove is included as part of the costume. When a member of the audience touches the hand of the dancer, the light changes in response to the touch. The design aims to strengthen the emotional connection between performers and viewers.

The A' Fashion, Apparel and Garment Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design recognition program that rewards excellent design of runway collections, dresses, suits, skirts, outerwear, jackets, apparel, garments and more.
