London-based fashion company CuteCircuit has just upped the ante in the Little Black Dress category.
The company recently released images and a few details about its forthcoming M-Dress, a dark, richly textured, form-fitting silk jersey dress that also doubles as acellphone. That’s right, you can make and receive calls with your current mobile number. From your dress.
Simply slip your SIM card underneath the garment label and you’re all set. The dress has special gesture recognition software that makes picking up a call as simple as raising a hand to your ear. (And yes, the dress rings. We were told that the default ring sounds like “Dilidilidilidliin dliin dliin.” Make of that what you will.) Dropping your hand will end the call, the manufacturer claims.
The dress will only be able to call a couple of numbers that will be pre-programmed into the dress, CuteCircuit spokesperson Francesca Rosella informed us, pointing out that one of those numbers could be an operator’s. You will also be able to attach different ringtones to different numbers, so that you can determine who is calling. http://mashable.com/2010/08/27/cellphone-dress/
