Kate's Dress Code
A custom-made code dress created for Kate Kirwin, founder of She Codes Australia. Kate calls this piece Kate's Dress Code, a wearable tribute to women in tech, community learning, and the joy of making technology visible. The dress was printed in Sarajevo on 100% cotton, with custom code developed in collaboration with She Codes students. Artist Shuntega in the USA created the visual design direction, while Fahira worked closely with Nenad to place the print across the garment so the code became part of the silhouette, not just a surface detail. And yes, the dress has pockets. Since its creation, Kate has taken the dress around the world: to a Forbes conference, to Dubai, to the opening of DDD Conference, and to She Codes graduations in Brisbane and Perth. What began as a custom wearable has become a travelling symbol of code, creativity, and women shaping the future of technology.
