Appreciates all types of design ideas. Good form & function should always work hand in hand but at times designs needs to be push through all types of boundaries. There is no standing still for design,only moving forward.

LED galaxy dress
Check out the video.
london-based designers cutecircuit have developed the world’s largest wearable display: a dress embroidered with over 24,000 colour LEDs. the dress uses ultra small flat LEDs that are also flexible to allow the dress to move like a textile rather than a rigid display. the circuits are attached to a silk backing to help keep things light, while four layers of chiffon are layered over the LEDs to diffuse the light. a series of smaller batteries are hidden in the dress, giving the user 30 to 60 minutes of glow. the dress has yet to be worn by a woman,since it went straight onto a mannequin at chicago’s museum of science and industry where it is currently residing.
