Space Couture and Space Suits

What is the difference?
Well a space suit will protect your body from disintegrating in the hard vacuum of space ( not a pretty sight I understand).
Space couture or space fashion is something that you wear in a controlled environment (say an 8 star or should that be an unimaginably big number of stars? space hotel) and you want to look as good as the enormous amount of money you have spent getting there.
So as this blog  and my research develops maybe we will be able to delve into the magic of smart materials, the comfort of classic fibres such as cashmere, and the amazing opportunities for new and challenging silhouettes that respond to light, radiation, minmal or no gravity and the thoughts of the human inhabiting them.
