Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen has unveiled her Helix Nebula dress during Paris Couture Week, featuring plasma-filled glass horns that light up in response to human touch. Debuted as part of Van Herpen's haute couture show in Paris, Helix Nebula is billed as the world's first dress made with plasma – gas that is ionised so it carries an electrical charge. Van Herpen worked with American artist Mundy Hepburn to inject this invisible material into hand-shaped glass horns. When wearing the dress, the body conducts the plasma's electrical field, causing its charged particles to move and release photons at specific wavelengths. As a result, the plasma lights up in a dramatic shade of red, with bolts of colour streaking through the glass horns as the wearer moves. The video is courtesy of Iris van Herpen.
