concept
Designer Noa Baruch always goes back to her grandmother's fifty year-old pattern cutting notebook for inspiration, as well as to preserve her cultural identity. The idea for this special one-off project was to develop a total look fully made in denim and inspired by the Anaglyph effect, a 3D stereoscopic effect obtained by superimposing in two different colours (usually red and cyan) two images taken from two different angles. When viewed through glasses with match, on each separate lens, the colours of the overlaid images, the eye is tricked into a feeling of a stereoscopic 3D image. In the garments for her total look, Noa layered a front piece of pattern in a blue line on top of a back piece of pattern, in a red line. This created a subtle effect and an entirely new silhouette with details that went right down to the buttons, customised to appear as 2 superimposed buttons in red and blue. It is essentially a 2D technique used to fake a 3D sensation, creating a three-dimensional outfit based on two-dimensional flats.
