Synopsis

What happens when every piece of clothing you wear is a touch screen? Sounds far fetched — like something out of a science fiction movie? Think again. Industry giants of fashion and tech from Google, Facebook and Apple to Gucci, Levi's and Calvin Klein are collaborating to create a world where everything you wear becomes 'smart' and 'talks' to you, all your technology and the entire digital world. Can you imagine a world where: * Your favorite 'little black dress' called you an Uber as soon as you zipped it up? * Your running shoes tracked each step and communicated with your shirt to determine your sweat level in an effort to monitor the intensity of your workout? * You unlocked your front door just by unbuttoning your coat? *Smart Wear* sheds light on a relationship that will define both fashion and technology for tech execs, fashion designers and every person that zips, buttons or laces an article of clothing. Go inside the convergence of two of the largest trends of our future — tech and fashion — to influence a future where smart tech is integrated into everything you wear.
