LOGIQUE explained.

...................................................................................................................................
INTRODUCTION: Performance fabrics were originally developed for space suits. More recently micro fibres were engineered to help aid performance of the military forces and athletes. Developments in contemporary society is advancing at a faster rate than ever, people are constantly searching for new methods of improvement in every aspect of their lives. This has lead to the popularity of performance fabrics in the design market to increase comfort in everyday living.

THEORY: My belief is that it is no longer valid to speak of "high end" or "low end" fashion. Contemporary fashion, like contemporary culture is all about the mix.

CUTE CIRCUITS- A summary


I was drawn to the Magic of Cute Circuits back in 2006,
when stumbling upon this creation, The Hug Shirt.
It allows you to send and feel hugs to and from other Hug Shirt owning friends!
The Hug Shirt is filled with wearable sensors and actuators, with a Bluetooth and Java enabled mobile phone- running on the ‘Hug Me’ Java software application. The sensors feel the strength of the touch, the warmth of the skin and the heart-rate. Nominated one of the best inventions by Time Magazine in 2006, the Hug Shirt lets you give love even when you’re far away.


More recently you'd associate Cute Circuits work, with The Katy Perry Dress.

Katy Perry walked down the red carpet all aglow at the Costume Institute Gala Benefit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, giving well deserved global recognition to the Designers, Francesca Rosella and Ryan Genz .
The gown was constructed using metres of silk chiffon and 3000 + LED's.
Wearable Technology at it's most glamorous!!!
