If you're a secret nerdy girl and a fan of the Sci-fi flick Tron, then you need to check out the 'Prom Tron Dress.' This is one seriously futuristic gown equipped with LED lighting stitched into the seams.
The dress was spotted at Comic Con, but Flickr user Karen Green fell in love with it and gave it its very appropriate name. The gown isn't actually all that bad looking considering themed gowns can look pretty tacky. It's got a nice mid-level hemline and a very chic poof around the bottom.
The blue lights add a great contrast against the black dress. The way the lights are placed is impressive as well, considering they act as straps and serve other functions.
Not a bad idea for a future Halloween Costume
