In this ASMR video, watch and listen to Senior Textile Conservator Susana Fajardo as she works on the dress worn by English pop singer Sandie Shaw at the 1967 Eurovision Song Contest. Follow the meticulous process as the garment is inspected, and loose beads are secured onto the embellished underdress.
ASMR stands for autonomous sensory meridian response – a pleasant tingling sensation beginning on the scalp and moving down the neck, which is triggered by a delicate or satisfying auditory or visual experience.
