Lingerie maker Triumph International Japan has been creating concept bras for a wide range of purposes for some time now. Their latest is the Taiyoko Hatsuden Bra, or Solar Power Bra.
The bra features a waist-mounted solar panel that can be used to power an electronic billboard or any other electronic device on the chest.
It also has features to enhance bust size! The bra has a pair of reusable drink containers attached to the cups. Triumph hopes the bra will inspire people to think about global warming and alternative energy sources.
Triumph International has also come up with other clever awareness bras including the Chopstick bra we featured a while back, and a "voter turn out" bra which has a clever skirt made of voting slips, which I guess are used when casting ballots.
