Floating Knit Dress

i-am-chen’s founder Zhi Chen’s Floating Knit Dress is part of a wider Spring/Summer 2019 collection called Green Papaya.

The garment was inspired by the designer’s love of the 1993 Vietnamese film The Scent of Green Papaya.

She wanted to capture details from the film – such as water droplets trembling on leaves, colourful bugs and dots of sunlight – in the knitting techniques and colour scheme.
