House of Boing aims to add kinetics to people’s lives in a bid to remind them of curiosity and excitement experienced most strongly in childhood. We try to fashion objects and environments re-connecting us to that childlike enthusiasm, the instant reaction to new and exciting objects and activities that a majority of “adults” have lost somewhere along the way. We are playing with the interaction and relation between wearer’s and their clothing. What would happen if the clothes had a live of their own?

What would be the wearer’s reaction to this movement that was acting independently from them but was nevertheless increased by their own movement? Would they cease to move, or change and adapt their movements accordingly? Might it be possible to take a glimpse at the wearer’s characteristics, perhaps more openly visible through this improvised, instant reaction and change of motion?

House of Boing is pleatfully delicious collection from the UK that’s made to move.

In order to achieve their signature looks the House brought together designers, musicians, dancers, actors, acrobats, scenographers, film makers and photographers to create collaborative works in site-specific projects, installations, environments and film work. House of Boing was started by Sandra Bamminger in 2000 following a Womenswear Fashion Design Degree at Central Saint Martins and completion of work experience placements for Clements/Ribeiro, Jessica Ogden and Eley/Kishimoto.

The collection pushes boundaries in traditional dress by not being afraid to incorporate extreme pleating, honeycomb patterns and burst of color into each piece. A true dance in a dress, House of Boing will be sure to put a little hop in your step.
