The dresses were suspended and therefore in slowly rotation.. and ever-changing with the light constantly hitting the dresses differently. very poetic unfortunately my cameras batteries died on me before I really got started.. so I have no pictures of the most spectacular of the dresses
Here are the pictures that I did manage to take..

^ Just what I was thinking. Thanks for the incredible inspiration, Hanne. I imagine light playing on a coral reef with different colors of seaweed moving back and forth in the tidal waves. Lovely! Here is the link to her website. And you can hear the music being played by the violinists on her site.

ooh thanks for the nice thread, Hanne and new links guys
the design in the dresses has a lot of depth..in the layers and transparency
looks very light and unusual
