Reef Couture is an experimental fashion exploration created with AI, inspired by the organic intelligence of coral reefs and deep-sea ecosystems. Using Midjourney to generate sculptural, biomorphic garments that merge couture silhouettes with reef-like textures, I curated a visual concept and brand in Figma, exploring bold typography. Liquid Glass techniques were applied to enhance translucency, flow, and light interaction, giving the forms a living quality, while Grok was used to animate subtle movement.
I use AI to design reef couture and translate the wild, organic patterns of coral and marine life into intricate, abstract pieces that would be incredibly time-consuming or nearly impossible to design manually. I'm not a fashion designer, but I love photography and I've always been fascinated by natural forms, growth, textures and colours in nature. Reefs are completely out of reach for me and I can't swim underwater too, therefore AI opens up new artistic expression in this field.
Software:
Mid-journey (used to create the images)
ChatGPT (used to create some of the prompts)
Grok (used for testing video output)
Artlist (was used initially to explore video but the output was very poor!)
Flow (using Veo 3.1 Fast to create video)
Figma (exploring liquid glass UI and typographic design)
