Electrofur Is The Latest Explosive Fashion On The Market

By Nita McKinney


Real fur coats became less fashionable as many people boycotted the wearing of animal skins because they wanted to protect the animals. Then came faux fur. Everything that was originally made of real fur could now be made of realistic looking faux fur. Now, lighting up the fashion scene is something entirely new in fur. Now we have electro fur.

A man discovered the idea for electrofur when he dropped a full length fur coat on a lighting system accidentally. He liked the way the light illuminated the material. It just happened that he was a fashion designer. He went on to develop fake fur coats that were fitted with battery powered components that lit up the garment and made it glow in the dark. Like the glow sticks children play with, it was a fun thing.

The public immediately took a liking to the garments made of this shimmering fabric. Coats, hats and other garments were soon made using it. They were made in prints and a wide array of bright colors. There are some with changing colors that alternate the colors much like neon signs do. These garments looked like wearable, sparkling jewelry.

The protestors for animal rights welcomed the new fabric. No animals were used to make electrofur. Those who manufactured the new fabric were kept extra busy producing enough to fill all the new orders pouring in. The response was all favorable and no one was opposed to the new fashion.

It took four long years of work to perfect the illuminated fur concept. It brought to the public a new fun garment to wear. The lighting effect was accomplished by weaving filaments right into the fake fur fabric. Now it has become so popular that it is sold all over the world.

It is growing in popularity on a world wide basis. One example is the fashion trend in Japan to wear the glowing fur hats. All over Tokyo these hats are seen, mostly made of the print fabric. This glimmering fabric the hats are made of is even being marked as liked on Facebook.

The sparkling vests and boas put an end to the need for flashlights. They provide enough light to find car keys and cards in a purse, read a street sign and find your way home in the dark. It is always fun to discover a new fashion. It is even better if that fashion serves a practical purpose too.

The annual event called Burning Man is a place where people go to show off new inventions. In the Black Rock Desert of Nevada, tens of thousands of creative people gather once a year. The purpose of this festival is to show off new artistic concepts. It lasts one week and then all temporary structures are taken down until the next year.

Everyone can publicize their own innovations and view those that others have made. The first illuminated fake fur coat was displayed at Burning Man. People gave it such a warm reception that plans were started to take it to the public. That is how electrofur came to be a fabric used to make garments for commercial sales.
