Here's a look at the Spring Summer 2011 Fabrican Couture show of the spray-on clothes. A lot cooler than just the t-shirts....

Amazing material, but you would definately need the correct body type for this.
The before mentioned obese individuals would be advised to pass on this marvel of technology.

Looks interesting and fun, but aerosol? I thought those were bad for the environment. And plastic - seeping into your pores with what other chemicals. Fun for the whole family to breathe! Skimpy reporting; these are basic consumer questions that easily could have been addressed. So this would put a lot of Chinese and Cambodians and Columbians and... out of work if it were to take off, i imagine.

Unfortunately, they'll be somebody out there that will buy it, and he'll make millions!

that's pretty cool but I don't think I would want lots of chemicals sprayed on my skin.
