Wearable Art

[cjsmith]

If I made "wearable art", what would it be?

- A snug-fitting sleeveless black leather vest with intricate geometric patterns cut out of it, letting the brilliant blue long-sleeved silk shirt underneath show through
- Hallowe'en variant: jack o'lantern face cut out, orange silk underneath
- A sweater knitted out of Kevlar
- A deep forest green velvet gown with an entire sunlit landscape scene embroidered on it in gold thread
- A fully articulated cat tail with tiny internal motors, wired for the wearer's control
- A dress whose entire visible surface is tiny LEDs
- "Wings" stretching from a long sleeve's seam down to a line along the wearer's side, based in something very light and supple such as silk so they will fold up, and covered in feathers

Y'know. Stuff.

Oh cool, someone's already done the cat tail. Odd how my first emotional reaction to that is "Then I don't have to." :-)

EEeiiuuu, right! Definitely no advertising space on the dress. I hadn't even been thinking of making them individually controllable -- the infrastructure would probably get too thick. More like waves of color...
