"Herself" is a beautifully organic, flowy air-purifying dress created as a collaboration by designers at 3 UK universities. The dress was created with pollutant-absorbing concrete. According to the design boom, "the creators estimate that forty people wearing the dress and standing across a meter of pavement would purify two meters of airspace each minute." I'm not sure if I should be impressed by that or not.

Google "dress of lights" and you can find zillions of illuminated creations, like Katy Perry's seizure-inducing Costume Institute Gala number. #KatyPerryHateDigressionThe "Fluid Dress" is in a class of it's own, despite the creator's self-proclaimed "disenchantment" with the piece. It was constructed of 600 feet of knitted tubing, controlled by a backpack.
