“Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology,” Part 2

 
This dress from the Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology was just enough to blow the mind! A floating dress, which is motorized, outfitted with wheels and decorated with remote-controlled winged crystals that can fly - that is what every girl wants. 


The detail in all of these designs is just oh so darn lovely!
