Pauline van Dongen
Description
Pauline van Dongen is a design studio specialised in wearable technology, merging fashion and high-tech experimentation. At Studio Pauline van Dongen, we research the body in a technologically textured space. After graduating from ArtEZ (Academy of the Arts) in Arnhem, Pauline launched her own womenswear label in 2010 which later evolved into a design studio. We operate a meticulous research on the behaviour of experimental and high-tech materials, combining new technologies with traditional techniques to continuously renovate craftsmanship. Working closely with varying entities from the field of science and innovation, our studio aims to merge fashion and technology whilst breathing life into scientific creations.
