stained glass garments

Yes, that’s right, we’ve got coats, trousers and neckties that glow in multihued colors like sunlight through a cathedral window. These chroma-clothes are made of flexible, opaque, 1-cm. thick, plastic panels, each evenly lit by a tinted diode.

Going out to do some clubbing, to play in traffic or to meet the Pope? Just slip in some fresh batteries before strutting out in your blazing blazer, bright as a Tiffany lamp.

That's the fanciest outfit Annie Liebowitz has ever worn.

I thought it was Yoko Ono. She needs a matching something around her waist, really. Some sort of plastic belt or band...

Well, she was probably around ten years old until I messed up her face - too much playing in traffic?

1cm thick clothing - especially made out of plastic - would be pretty heavy, no?

phoenix: Uh yes...but it'd be a lot lighter than glass!
