There’s a thin line between the practical and the ridiculous, yet this fashion experiment designed by Hussein Chalayan and engineered by Moritz Waldemeyer stretches well into the realm of ridiculous. Taking the “rising trend” of wearables and twisting it into an extreme one person light show produces this raver’s dream outfit; however, rather than using cheap materials and disregarding appearance for function, Chalayan and Waldemeyer produced an outfit that fits well within the contemporary fashion world. Although it appears this was just an experiment by the designers, it isn’t hard to believe that in the near future something similar will become available, I just hope that future designers will see how wearables can be pushed too far, thanks to this art piece by Chalayan and Waldemey.
