Sunlight & water reaction

What a beautiful sunny day today! I grabbed a cup of coffee and my ipod and had a long, long walk... Goodbye winter, hello summer!

The previous post was about a winter jacket which changes its colour, so now - in summer mood- lets take a look at a dress that changes its colour on reaction  to sunlight and water.

Rainbow Winters project "Water reactive and Sun reactive dress" is a piece of art. A collection of interactive garments that change colour in response to water and sunlight. The fabrics are printed with thermochromic and hydrochromic inks. The results are amazing!

Water activated dress transforms the flowers and bodice into full colour

Sunlight transforms the colour of the dress, from pink to purple

Rainbow winters also created a unique swimsuit that is printed with similar sun-reactive technology, changing the central panel into purple dots when you lounge in the sun.

Let it shine!
