“One of the most incredible moments of my time at Iris van Herpen was the creation of the ‘Heliopsphere Gown’ for Beyoncé. As part of the process, I was in charge of making a custom mannequin for the singer, as well as gluing many of the pieces that make up the cape. It has been an honour to participate in the creative process and above all to learn new techniques during the hard hours of work”.

The ‘Heliopsphere Gown’ combines innovation and craftsmanship to a level of complexity that transcends Beyoncé and her motions into an ethereal constellation of light.

To create the ‘Heliosphere Gown’, a total of 980 falcate shapes were 3D constructed by casting silver-marbled silicone into mirrored laser cut outlines.
