Emily Steel constructed The Little Slide Dress out of recycled individual film slides, backed with light-sensitive LEDs. During the day the dress will remain true to its surface material of little colour, but when darkness falls the LEDs sensor reacts, bringing the backed slides truly into the limelight.
"The Little Slide Dress is a modern take on
the classic Little Black Dress. It uses modern technology and blends it with a
100-year-old medium, film. The Dress draws inspiration from classic movies and
the ‘magic of film’ to create a wearable piece of technology and art." ~ Emily Steel, Behance
