Shoes x Fiber Optics = Enlightenment
Another successful integration of technology into fashion!
Italian born Francesca Castagnacci, has fueled her artistic inspiration through an awe striking fashion concept. Her latest project uses special optical fibers woven into fabrics to creating visual effects with light and dimesions. The result is creations that surprise our eyes and trigger our imagination.
The concept, known as Luminex, has been been used for quite some time by electronics-oriented industries, yet its recent use by the textile industry brought some obviously striking results.
With designers incorporating technology into fashion, I wonder what our wardrobes will look like in 5-10 years? I personally would not wear these, but, I might use them as a really cool night light or something.

Should I be impressed? I like the materials, the concept. Don't know if I wanna shine from head to toe! I'm fashion forward, absolutely, but don't push me!

Ha yea I agree, I see what your saying. Like I said, I love the concept and idea behind it, but I wouldn't wear them. But with the characters walking around out there these days, I'm sure there is someone out there who could pull these off and look fly.
