The Power of the Little Black Dress
I’ll admit I love technology and keeping up with what companies launch next. I get excited over mobile phones that having more capabilities, making my life easier. However I stumbled across this dress that made me think twice about how far I want to see technology to go. Maybe it’ll grow on me but first impression is mixed.
It’s a little black dress by CuteCircuit, a London based company that creates wearable, functional fashion. The dress is beautiful but here’s where technology meets beauty: it’s also a mobile phone. With this design your ‘little black dress‘ IS your phone. The SIM card slot is under the label and utilizes the same number as your phone. To answer a call simply lift your hand to your ear and answer. When you’re done talking, put your arm down. I’m not sure if the dress rings, buzzes or vibrates but imagine being at dinner and having your dress ring?!?!
Now if you’re not ready to give up the mobile handset then stop by AT & T at Pleasant Ridge Towne Center. The store carries a large selection of new smart phones and it’s less than 10 minutes from Highland Pointe Apartments. If you decide you want to be one of the first to own the dress, you’ll have to order it from Selfridges department store in October.
