The Galaxy Dress is composed of 24,000 LEDs, each measuring two by two millimeters, attached to four layers of chiffon and forty layers of crinoline. The whole thing can be powered by a few iPod batteries for up to an hour. It's one of the recent creations of CuteCircuit, a design firm specializing in "wearable technology." The dress is now on permanent display at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. More pictures at the link.

Having seen the dress in person, it is interesting. Yes, the LED's go around the whole dress. I found it not that attractive in real life. Interesting, but kind of ugly. Also, it looked horribly uncomfortable.

I can't imagine where I would wear something like this, and am not even sure I would, but it is cool to look at!

I not really fond of how it give the illusion of the anorexic yet hourglass look to the body. Can I see this dress in plus size?

Trust me. For a woman to get noticed, she doesn't need bright lights... just headlights.
