I've just watched a short video of this story, isn't it marvellous, such an important message. I must watch the YouTube interview, thanks for posting the link.

That is so inspiring, I love the completed dress & would love a really close look - and be able to touch it!!

@realale
The dress is currently anticipated to be displayed in about a year's time (October 2022) at SENSE Birmingham - so that may suit you.
Sadly I doubt that one will be able to touch it to feel the textures tho'.
The list of currently planned showings is
