Nhu Duong JPEG Collection

I just discovered the Swedish based fashion designer Nhu Duong and her JPEG collection. Using vivid digital prints on modular system of dresses, she manipulates images from amateur photographs found on the Web and digitally compresses them, to become pixelated, the final image turns into sublime geometric displays of color. Printed on silk these romantic color-field images are juxtaposed with monochrome neoprene material.
