I enjoyed NPR's spot yesterday evening about challenging project Runway designers to come up with an easy to create, yet fashion forward halloween costume. Laura for the current season reflected on her efforts to dress up her brood, which was entertaining. Some other costumes were floated, like Katherine Gerdes' ingeneous iPod outfit. Diana Eng, tech goddess that she is, came up with a great concept:
"Eventually, she'd like to design a parent-child lightning bug ensemble that would help mom or dad keep track of their kids. Her concept: When the parent and child stand close to each other, the costumes glow. But if the child strays to far from the parent, then the costumes go dim. So of course the child will want to stay near by to keep glowing."
