The modern plastic and aluminum chain mail dresses that Paco Rabanne designed in the mid-1960s were a radical departure from traditional couture. By using reflective or transparent materials and repeating elements, he connected seamlessly with art movements such as Zero and Op Art, which expressed the aesthetics of the space age.
