Clo-Go – Like Lego but for Clothing- Clothing that clicks
together so that kids can make different designs out of the ‘building blocks’
of an outfit.

or brightly coloured, punky or braided with ribbons.
Angel Wing Waistcoat- Feather covered waistcoat that looks
like angel wings wrapped around the torso.
Horizontally fastening, vertically fitting clothes: Most
clothing fastens vertically (buttons run top to bottom, not from left to right)
and is put horizontally onto the body but you could have clothing that goes the
other way, fitting vertically and fastening horizontally, just for a novelty.
Or perhaps a combination of both vertical and horizontal fastening/fitting.

them on in windy weather.

coloured dress so that the bright colours can be seen through the lace or
perhaps a two layered dress/top/skirt that is lace on its top layer and other
materials underneath.
Hob-lot- Hobble skirt that converts into culottes by unzipping it down the middle - combining the restrictiveness of the hobbleskirt with the freedom of the cullotte.

inverted collars (like shirt collars) at the bottom or trouser waists with
collars.
Length Alteration Skirt ideas– a) Zip Alteration Skirt – A
micro-mini skirt with a zip hemline so that you can zip on another hemline and
then another until it becomes a long skirt b) Folding alteration skirt – A long
skirt with velcro on it so that you can fold it over and make it shorter or
fold it over again to make it shorter still.

dresses of different colours and patterns that can be zipped together to create

The Matchmaker Bracelet – Idea for an electronic digital invention
1. A matchmaker bracelet is an electronic digital device into which a person programmes all the things they would prefer in a partner.
2. Whenever two matchmaker bracelets come close to each other, if the same preferences have been entered into both of them, then both of the Matchmaker bracelets will start flashing; vibrating and bleeping.
3. This is much more convenient than online dating because you just have wear your matchmaker bracelet and go out clubbing or whatever and the moment that you run into your perfect match (if they’re also wearing a bracelet) then the bracelets will alert you.
Hairweaving hat –
A hairweaving hat is a hat with holes in it so that hair can be woven through it, merging the hat ornamentally with the hair.

If you can have bobble hats that are knitted from wool, why not make them out of lace

How about sleeves that are slinky’s/coils/springs
Ceramic Hats –
Why not make hats out of ceramics; pottery hats
Safety Belt Belt – This is a retractable belt for clothing (for holding up trousers) that can be pulled out to fit different sizes of people just like car seat belt.
Ideas Inspired By Halterneck/top-
Hat/Head Top – This is like a halter top except that, rather than going round a person’s neck the strap which holds it up goes round a person’s head or is part of a hat; hood or snood.
Necklace top – This is a form of halter top where the strap which holds it up is a jewelled necklace or pendant.
Reverse Halter Top- The halterneck strap is on the back of the top, it goes over the head and attaches to the front of the top.
Tie Top/bow top – This a halter top upon which the halter neck is a necktie or a ribbon tied in a bow
Turtle Halter – This is a halter top where the helter neck strap is replaced by a turtleneck
The Tube Jacket/ Coat –
Essentially an armless jacket or coat that is like a tube top, possibly for wearing over a tube top.
Headphone strap belt - Belt like a headphone strap (stiff but flexible) that fastens by clicking together like a seatbelt.
Headphone Strap Goggles/Sunglasses- Goggles or Sunglasses that wrap around the head the way that headphones do (with a stiff, flexible band), except horizontally; the goggle lenses clicking together to hold them on.
Headphone Bikini Top - This is a bikini top with a stiff strap
like the strap which holds on headphones (only covered with a softer material
to make it comfortable and shaped to fit round a torso rather than a head),
easy to slip on and then a strap between the cups clicks together to hold it on. (Might require shoulder straps to work).
Watchband Bikini Top - The same idea but with a strap like an elasticated watchband. (Might not work without shoulder straps).
Solar Powered Bikini/ Swim Suit/Sunglasses-
If you’re sunbathing then you could also be generating
electricity by solar power, perhaps to cool yourself down with a fan or maybe
there could be a small socket from which you could power an MP3 player or some
other portable entertainment device or perhaps you could have a digital TV in
your sunglasses that would be solar powered (perhaps this would work better if
the sunglasses were directly solar powered).
Pressure Sensitive, Peelable Adhesive Gel Bandage for everyday cuts and grazes – Perhaps you could make bandages with peelable adhesives. They might be softer and more comfortable and less painful to tear off.
Pressure Sensitive, Peelable adhesive bikini top- Perhaps hot melt, pressure sensitive, peelable adhesives (like the ones used to stick credit cards to letters) could be used to make a strapless, backless bikini top stay on rather than old fashioned adhesive strips or perhaps the peelable adhesive could even be moulded into a cup shape and be the bikini cup itself and if that works you might even do away with the centre strap holding the cups together.
