Tech Highlights From Past Fashion Weeks
I love it when tech shows up in fashion, which is why I always keep my eyes peeled when Fashion Week rolls around. Just because I love following tech trends, doesn't mean I don't love fashion — but I especially love it when they both join forces! Here are some of my favorite tech fashion partnerships from previous years.
Iron Maiden Gwyneth and The Future of Fashion!
What if Tony Stark had been Antonia Stark and Gwyneth Paltrow was the one suiting up in Iron Man, out today? The film would probably look like Vogue's spread with cover girl Gwyneth Paltrow — real props from Marvel complement couture gowns and elaborate wiring that's as much her power as it is her accessory. Check out the slideshow for the whole Gwyneth shoot!
Apple Employees' New Uniforms: What Would Karl Lagerfeld Do?
The change-up in Apple employees' uniforms got me thinking — what if they took this step to be as fashion forward as they are in the aesthetic design of their products? Changes include dark blue for Geniuses/Creatives, light blue for Specialists, bright orange for Concierges, black for Back-of-the-House kids, who will all be wearing t-shirts, while Business Partners will be in dark blue button-down shirts.
But what if, instead of just assigning new colors of t-shirts, Apple went a little haute couture — maybe not quite Vogue's editorial take on IT fashionistas, or at the very least, fun and trendy?
Vogue Wants To Get Digital
This month's Vogue has more than Iron Woman Gwyneth Paltrow — they have a spread called "Let's Get Digital," that seems to be aimed squarely at me and my geeksugar loyalists! They mix Logitech with Lanvin, iPhones with Armani, Blackberrys and Balenciaga — what I've been striving to do for years: meshing a look that loves fashion as much as technology. Check out the slideshow to see the geek chic intersections!
Love It or Leave It? Roaring Flame Filled Pants
What do you get when you mix pleather with LED flashing lights? A pair of glow in the dark, ready-to-wear Vegas pants of course! Featured on 7 Gadgets these, how shall I say this, "unique" pair of pants deserve their own category in geeksugar's geek wear collection.
Totally Geeky or Completely Crazy? Geeky Shoes
I couldn't resist posting these when I saw a feature on TechEBlog which displayed some outrageously geeky shoes. The first pair of sneakers come with a wireless music system which includes an MP3 player. You can store up to 100 songs and transfer them via the USB which is, get this, on the side of the shoe!
Love It or Leave It? Click Wheel Nano T-Shirt
Doesn't this click wheel nano t-shirt by PodWare remind you of those cutsey wootsey baby iPod jumpers? The only difference is these T's have a special pocket to fit your 1st or 2nd generation iPod nano (also available for shuffles). Featured on Gadgetress, these $26 T-shirts come in a variety of designs and sizes for both men and women.
Fashionable or Too Techie? The Video Dress
Turkish designer Hussein Cahalayan presented this high tech video dress at the Milan Design Fair. With 15,600 embedded LED lights in the fabric, this dress displays a time lapse of a rose opening and closing. It is currently on display at the 10 Corso Como gallery in Milan, along with the mechanical dresses from the show in Paris.
Love It or Leave It? Retro Cassette Bag
If you purchased a hot neon Marcella Foschi cassette wallet, you may just want to add this retro geek cassette tote to your collection! Posted by Popgadget, this old-school carry-all bag has a black and yellow cassette pattern printed on its flexible plastic exterior. And yes, the handles were made to look like unraveling cassette tape.
