Meg Grant, the inventor of the 'See-Thru-Me' top, has created a clever techno-fashion garment using a rather simple concept.
The 'See-Thru-Me' top consists of 36 individual circuits, each with a light resistor sewn separately into the shell lining. When a light source is shone on the back of the person wearing top, the LEDs on the front light up, creating the illusion that the light went right through the wearer’s body.
