Solar-Powered Bra has Neither Form Nor Function

Solar Powered Bra has Neither Form Nor Function
Unless your name is Madonna, you're probably in the habit of wearing your underwear beneath the rest of your clothes -- assuming you wear any at all. For this reason, a concept piece from high-end lingerie manufacturer Triumph might seem a bit peculiar to you. It's a solar-powered bra capable of charging an iPod or cell phone, in theory. In practice, this thing doesn't really seem to have any purpose whatsoever.

The bra sports a lengthy mid-section complete with a crudely-attached, flexible solar panel crudely. Directly above the panel is a small LED panel that lets you broadcast messages. On sunny days, you can hook up your celly or portable music player to the outfit in order to refill the battery. However, like most bits of tech, this one is best left at home on a rainy day. It can't even be washed, meaning this eco-friendly bra would, after a few wearings, likely become more of an ecological disaster. [From: Just-style]
