Nanotechnology Fashion
In 2007, fashion designers and fiber scientists at Cornell University created a two-toned gold dress designed to prevent colds and flu as well as a metallic denim jacket that destroys harmful gases and protects the wearer from smog and air pollution. This was the first time nanotechnology entered the world of fashion, although one major drawback is the garment’s price since one square yard of nano-treated cotton costs about $1,000.
