the future of clothing... microchip dress

As I was doing my daily reading on the Vogue Forums and the SMH (Sydney Morning Herald) I foiund this intersiting thread and news article aboout this mechanical dress designed by Hussein Chalayan. The dress is made out of microchips and PVC panneling, which allow the dress to change and alter themselves so that you can have a dress that changes itself, when you go to a party and you see someone else who is wearing the same dress as you, you will be able to alter it so that you will be wearing something different.

I think that the only problem that I would have with the dress is that, if it malfunctioned on you and it started to undress itself or start to change when you didn't want it to change. And what would happened if it didn't want to come off and then you would be stuck with this dress on you becuase of the microchips malfunctioning. According to the SMH who described the dress as something that was out of the 1960's films.

Chalayan's futuristic offerings nevertheless seemed imbued with many of the same
1960s sci-fi influences seen in many of this season's collections, as in his
grey and silver shift dress and a series of colour-contoured and tulle-overlaid
rag dresses.

In my opion this would not always work as it may start to malfunction, and then you would have major problem if your dess starts to come up on you are start to undress.

beyond the eye...

when i was surfing the net today looking at different fashion websites and bloggs, and found this new false eyelashes that were actually feathers which i found were so interesting.
As they were inspired by miu miu and Roberto Cavalli, they are a limited addition by a company called shu uemura. I think that it is something different that will be around for halloween, if they where sold in australia i would deffenatly buy them.

I found them really artistic, and would just be great to buy them and keep them for that off chance that you might be able to wear them sometime for the right occassion.

The Races

As I went to the races yesterday, I found that a lot of the girls and guys were not dress for the races, or what I thought you where meant to wear to the races. A lot of the girls where wearing short dress and sandals, that is what really bothered me it was just the weather was so crappy and cold and windy; so if you were wearing a short dress it would blow up in the wind. As I know from my own experience, because I was wearing a knee length dress and a coat and I was still cold. Well that is just my own experience and I still cold, but oh well that is just what I think you should wear.
