March 10, 2012, Los Angeles…Avid automotive fans know that BMW Group often decals its development vehicles with a unique camouflage of kaleidoscoping black and white swirls. Its purpose is to obscure details of the vehicle’s finished appearance, while also hinting at the new model’s approximate shape and proportions to stir interest and curiosity. BMW Group DesignworksUSA has now created a similar effect for the body by creating a one-of-a-kind wearable art piece, entitled Yearning: Camouflaged Beauty.
Yearning: Camouflaged Beauty, a dress made from a gossamer fabric printed with BMW’s signature black and white camouflage, were auctioned together with wearable creations by more than 40 global players from architecture, design, fashion, graphics and visual arts at A + D Architecture + Design Museum’s Celebrate 2012 fundraiser taking place March 10, 2012, in Los Angeles.
“We find it inspirational to translate design motives which are ubiquitous to those who are immersed in the automotive industry, and yet is completely new and unexpected in the world of apparel,” says Laurenz Schaffer, President, BMW Group DesignworksUSA. “Yearning: Camouflaged Beauty illustrates how innovation can be found by cross-fertilizing ideas between seemingly disparate industries, a concept which serves as a catalyst for creativity at DesignworksUSA,” Schaffer continues.
