The board in front of you shows a sketch for a summer dress as worn by Barbara Sukowa as Lola in the eponymously named movie, produced in 1981 and directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder.
The board is divided into four sections:
On the bottom left is information about the dress in large black lettering on a squared background reminiscent of a notebook. To the right of that is the same text in braille on a rectangular, black background:
“A gossamer 1950s-style dress of white organdy with dark-blue flower-shaped embroidery.”
The QR code is located at the bottom center of the board within a tactile square frame.
The upper section contains the original sketch of the dress, presented in relief. To the left is the front view, to the right is the back view.
The close-fitting overdress of organza with a Peter Pan collar is worn over a corset underdress. Organza is a sheer, iridescent fabric made from silk. A belt with a front buckle encircles the waist, where a wide flared skirt begins. This keeps its shape and volume thanks to the full petticoat worn beneath.
Horizontal lines between the front and back views of the dress lead to the text in the middle.
On the other side of a vertical dividing line, in the upper right-hand third of the board is a detail of the floral pattern on organdy: four large flowers arranged in a square with five smaller ones in between them, arranged in the shape of a plus sign.
Underneath you can feel a sample of the original organdy used for this summer dress – a stiff, translucent fabric made from cotton.
