Is Japan taking the lead in creating rather weird underwear. Or is it that we just don’t pay enough attention to quirky stuff from other countries? Well, either way, it seems like Japanese designers are having a field’s day with these new innovations.
First up, there is the solar bra! Yes, there is a solar panel which will generate power. You are probably wondering what this eco-friendly energy is going to be used for. Good question and I don’t think they have quite worked that one out. So far it looks like the electricity will be used to create scrolling messages on an electronic panel. Oh and where is the panel? It is stuck to the bra/corset contraption.
And there’s more! Apparently you can fill the cups with water or vodka. I can understand the water bit but that segment about vodka is a bit sad, isn’t it? Surely if you are going for an alcoholic drink, port or sherry is the way to go?
Then there is the Anti-Smoking Bra. Am I the only one who snickered when I read this one? The theory is that when the wearer grabs a cigarette and starts smoking, the ..er undergarment will let out a kind of smell, one that will make her lose the craving for smoking.
Doesn’t that sound suspiciously like letting off wind, which incidentally is a natural body function in the first place. So why pay extra bucks for smelly air?
By the way, it’s not really sure if the emission of air is activated as a result of the wearer smoking or if it is a reaction to any whiff of smoking in the area. This could lead to some embarrassing situations, especially at an outdoor campfire.
How’s this for weird and interesting at the same time? Japanese folks recently saw a strange new contraption called the Jury Bra. It was showcased sometime in the past month or so at the at Tokyo Ryutsu Center. Our model here is Hiromi Nishiuchi, a 19 years old Japanese girl.
Here’s what’s interesting about it – apparently this scales of justice bra is meant to make folks more aware of a big change in Japanese society. And what is that? The introduction of a lay juror system this year.
So ladies, which bra will be your favorite? Solar bra, anti-smoking bra or the jury bra?
