Known for her optical illusion-inspired couture creations, Dutch fashion designer Iris van Herpen has made a name for herself as a creative visionary capable of translating fantastical concepts into wearable art. In a 2016 interview with The Talks, van Herpen offered her perspective on the subjective line between reality and dreams, explaining, "I try to stretch the boundaries or the perception of boundaries that we give ourselves." In other words, to do something brand new, we need to recognize that often the only differences between dreams and reality are the limitations we create for ourselves.
