Beware feminists' new man-stabbing dress Exclusive: Phil Elmore reveals outfit that attacks anyone who gets 'too close' 12.24.2014
Touted as an “innovation” in personal safety technology, a new 3D-printed dress designed by Anouk Wipprecht has been turning heads thanks to its “sinister” spider-like appendages.
These limbs attack all who come too close to the garment.
“It works based on an Intel Edison chip, stored inside, and linked with nearness and breath sensors,” writes FlightCentric. “However, the sensors cannot be perceived by any admirer.”
The dress has three spike-tipped limbs radiating from the area of the wearer’s collarbone.
“If you enter the wearer’s personal space aggressively, the dress attacks,” the FlightCentric piece explains. “Animatronic arachnid limbs attached to its shoulders lash out at intruders. But if you approach calmly and slowly, these limbs might beckon you forward.”
