Fashion Is Fun

As If!

cluelessshotofcherdionnetai.jpgHere at Fashionista, we’re obsessed with everything Clueless. From “rollin’ with the homies”, to Pismo Beach disaster relief and Travis Birkenstock to Amber avoiding activities where balls fly at her face.

But of course, at the core, there is the clothing. The checks, the knee socks, Tai’s makeover.

And, without fail, every time we catch this classic on USA or TBS, the scene with Cher planning and matching her outfit on her computer makes us painfully envious.

So when we read about an interactive closet, a la Cher’s, in the NY Post, we were clearly excited.

On Monday, XBox 360 unveiled their new technology called Project Natal—a controller-free gaming system. We know, we know, this doesn’t sound particularly interesting. Until you watch this video. At around the 2:20 mark, you’ll understand.

Now, if we could do away with mirrors and rely solely on Polaroids, like our cinematic alter ego, getting dressed would be perfected.

It all seems so...odd! I would love to have something like that but I doubt I would really use it. I mean...my closest is in the same room I would most likely have this machine thingy and it just kinda makes no sense to buy it...for suggestions.

I also think it's funny that Fashionista sorta knocked the girl who asks questions when shopping by calling her "not fashion obsessed" but it's okay to ask a machine for virtually the same advice?

A controller free gaming system doesn't sound particularly interesting? Lord. Project Natal is amazing! That cheesy clothing thing is the least of it...

no.3 did you watch the video? the machine doesn't give advice it's a tool for trying on clothes (virtually) that you don't have yet or before you actually wear them out with just a wave of the hand. I dunno no.5 i wouldn't call it cheesy lol but the other features are kickass!! too bad this stuff is gonna be hella expensive...

I remember watching Clueless and thinking Cher's system was so intense. Now this? It's crazy.

If mirrors lie, I don't even want to know what this thing will show me.
