Our Dark Power bodysuit took the stage at CES Asia with the FashionWare event. Styled with a jacket and skirt, this demonstrated the versatile nature of our illuminated bodysuit.
The Dark Power bodysuit changes colors and light patterns through a remote control, and is designed with a hidden pocket that hides technology and wires. It features a washable layer to sustain multiple wearings without exposing the electronics to water.
A custom illuminated skirt with silver 3D-printed accents and LED illumination was also showcased, paired with a trendy sweater and the Evone shoe, and App Elles SOS bracelet.
Other designers featured at the show included Nandi X yoga pants, the Google Levi Jacquard jacket, Anina Net, and Fossil.
