Nestled at the core of this partnership is Perbandt’s iconic evening gown, a vision of sophistication meticulously adorned with delicate hand-embroidered fabric birds. But this isn’t just fashion; it’s an immersive experience. Utilizing augmented reality technology, the team will bring this masterpiece to life, offering guests an unparalleled AR experience.
In addition to Perbandt’s ‘Concrete Jungle’ collection, two standout pieces will grace the installation: a suspended headpiece crafted from luxurious synthetic hair and the iconic Bird dress. These pieces exemplify Perbandt’s unwavering dedication to pushing boundaries in fashion. The Bird dress, crafted entirely from Deutschleder—a 100% cotton fabric sourced from Germany—stands as a testament to Perbandt’s commitment to quality and innovation. Known for its tightly woven construction, Deutschleder boasts unparalleled durability, elevating the ensemble to new heights of sophistication.
