The Esther Dress - the film

Jade is a knitter and printmaker with a Bachelor of Visual Art and a Diploma in fashion.

The Esther Dress is inspired by the immortal Jellyfish – Medusae. The use of trace paper captures the ethereal translucency of the jellyfish. It has been hand-cut, creased and assembled to form a pliable fabric which has been made into a wrap dress. The Haori jacket (half kimono style) is made from 115 knitted triangle motifs made from 1000m of paper string. The brain-coral patterned hat and mittens showcase Jade’s prodigious knitting and crocheting skills.
