Screaming Fan Suits Edit
'Wanting to Be You' Is Fashion For Really Hardcore Fans Only


Digg this TrendStumble this TrendShare this TrendEmailthis TrendEmbed This TrendShare This Trend



‘Wanting to Be You’ is the title an unusual suit. I guess it is more like an artistic machine that allows a hardcore fan of some star or celebrity to stand out in the crowd at film premieres and red carpet events.

The suit is comprised of a projector, speakers and a light system, which is controlled by a media player. The suits starts to send hysterical screams into the air when the fan (read: target) approaches. Needless to say, it attracts much more attention than the normal crowd of fans. The media player then starts to project self-confessed messages to the star to get their attention. Wow, and it apparently continues until it bursts into a climatic display of emotions.

The suit was created by a student called Ross Cairns and exhibited at the Royal College of Art, London a few weeks ago.

Below is a quote from an interview with the student. You can read more about the crazy fan suit here.

I started hanging out at London's Leicester Square during film premiers as I was so intrigued by fandom - that strange mix between aspiration and devotion - that i think we all have in us. The way people interact at premiers is amazing. (we-make-money-not-art)
