Would you dare to wear spray on clothes?

In one word – no! Personally I have normal clothes and they suit me just fine.

Also looking at the pictures in the article, I think the guy lab just looks a little bit TOO happy to be spraying the liquid fabric onto the nearly naked volunteer. I’m pretty sure the female writer (Laura Stott) just wanted to get her kit off, lol. Maybe she’s an aspiring model and thought this would be a great opportunity: P

Jokes aside, as a technological advance in textile technology, I have to say it is pretty interesting. The spray is a mix of short organic fibres that bind together to form a solid material, without the need for any stitching or weaving
Eventually when it will be put into production, costing about £10 a can, which is not bad. The material that you spray on can be to your own designs specifications and it will certainly be one of a kind. The texture of the fabric can be varied as well as the method of applying the spray to produce new styles. Once the material has dried it can be washed and it is removable, just like normal clothing. It is also ecologically viable as it can be dissolved and reused to make a new item.

But where would be see it fitting into our clothing habits? Would it even fit in here in the UK or would it be better off used abroad? Any ideas?
