Based on the fairy tale "Peau d'Âne" (which is based on about garments made from the sun, moon and sky), the new collection of dresses from Valerie Lamontagne wirelessly receives weather info on temperature, moon phase, wind speed, UV and more. Then, microprocessors in the dresses react to the weather data to create stunning looks. For example the sun dress has 128 LEDs and the sky dress has 14 vibrating air pockets to represent the wind.
Needless to say, the dresses by Valerie Lamontagne are stunning.
