LEDs (Light-Emitting Dresses)

Posted October 15, 2006 6:00 AM
Pathfinder Tags: LED photonics

Photonic technology is beginning to come to the fashion world, and it ain't Cinderella's light-up dress in the Main Street Electrical Parade. German fashion designer Anke Loh is using an LED-enabled fabric to display full-color moving images on the clothing in her fall collection. A battery operated dress. Let's hope none of the wearers ever gets tossed in a pool – it would give a whole new meaning to the phrase fashion victim.

Very interesting to read about LED enabled fabric.

It is informative that this is the first time that a fashion designer has used such technology (LED enabled fabric) of 'Philips'. Thank you.
