Japanese make dresses made of balloons

The artist Rie Hosokai of Daisy Balloon builds elaborate dresses from the inflated material to create striking haute couture with an unlikely fabric.

Japanese artist Rie Hosokai of Daisy Balloon builds elaborate dresses from the inflated material to create striking haute couture with an unlikely fabric.

The latest fashion piece was constructed as part of ‘piece for peace‘ – a charity art exhibition at parco gallery in Tokyo until the 9th of january, 2013 – in conjunction with a lego dress Hosokai made of a similar style.

The work was produced through a custom type ‘knitting’ of white balloons to gradually build a fragile, but wearable frock, immaculately captured through the art direction of Hosokai’s partner Takashi Kawada.
