Doing some twilight skiing, afraid of getting hit by a car while crossing the street or just want to make a statement, this ski suit by Willy Bogner is for you.

“LEDs are becoming pretty commonplace in clothes these days, but Willy Bogner has come up with an idea that is actually useful rather than decorative,” Gizmodo said. “He has come up with solar-powered ski suits with LED trim on them to keep you visible on the slopes. The thin film technology lights were designed by Osram, and Bogner unveiled them at an event in Munich last month.”

There’s no telling what Elvis or Liberace could have done with LEDs.

Fabulous for romantic night skiing, but harder to escape eyes of onlookers when you duck between the trees for a little frosty friskiness!
