Fashion Design Meets Social Media

I have to admit a deep dark secret – possibly my most favorite part of awards shows is the dresses. (Sometimes I refer to them as costumes because “dress” seems a little far fetched.) There are so many interesting textures, colors, and shapes – inspiring for any artist. This year’s Grammy Awards Red Carpet was no exception.

I was blown away to realize one of the dresses was a “Twitter Dress.”

Artist Imogen Heap wore a dress created in part by its own Twitter feed using the hashtag #twitdress. Not only did she allow her fans the opportunity to join her on stage, she shared their Twitter photos with the viewing world.
