Sensory architect Jenny Tillotson and the Science Fashion Lab have developed this incredible [emotion-sensing dress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mij-technology). The piece of fabric [shifts colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorchanging-paint-1) according to the weather's biometrics, and Second Skin seeks to respond dynamically to the wearer’s mood. The dress reacts accordingly with [aromas aimed at enhancing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emotion-by-dsmfirmenich) good environments and altering bad ones.

I guess if the design by Jenny Tillotson takes off, keeping that bad mood a secret won't be an option for much longer!
