Description

Description

Moving lights is a jewelry set – earrings, a sash, as well as a headpiece that will light up when a person moves. It is meant to accessorize a dancer or person in theater's movement during a performance. This set is made up of Swarovski crystals, embellished with led lights, as well as vibration sensors. This design holds other possibilities, as in the future it can be reworked to be used in accessible designs, especially for those who may not have use of their arms, but can use their chest and neck to communicate.
