We were all about our mood ring when we were in 6th grade, even though it basically stayed the same shade of bluish purple until we lost or broke it a year later.
And if you still love My Girl as much as we do, you can bring back the look in a slightly more adult fashion. The designers and engineers at Phillips have brought us the Bubelle Dress, a frock that will change colors depending on your mood.
The Bubelle is made up of two layers- the inner one contains biometric sensors that “pick up a person’s emotions and projects them in colours onto the second layer, the outer textile”. The dress was made as part of a project predicting lifetyle items for the year 2020.
We’re not totally sure if we want to wear a dress that broadcasts to the world whenever we’re feeling “flirty” – but then again, it would eliminate the need for a lot of awkward conversations.
