why i am making this

I decided to create a glow in the dark bikini for a few reasons. I believe that having a product like this on the market would actually be useful. i think that making this bikini will enhance many affairs. I can just imagine celebrities or upper class teenages wearing ths product t omake themselves stand out in a crowd. Most of all my piece is more coneptual. I would like to see what people would say or how they would act toward a girl wearing a glowing bikini. Would there be more postive or negative reactions? Why would somebody chose to wear something that makes them stand out more than anyone else?. I have asked myself and many poeple questions like these two. Mostly, the reactiosn i had were positive. A lot of people wanted to see what it would look like finished and to see it in situation. People were interested in seeing how they themselves would react if they saw a girl come to a pool party in a GLOWkini. someone who i asked these questions to commented that he thought GLOWkini would be very marketable to young women.

I'm very excited to see how it comes out and see the reaction it gets in a public enviornment

update

ok so i just got back from fabric shopping. well well well i think i have come close to entering every fabric store on 38, 39 and 40th st and some other ones along the way. i either got laughed at, or people didnt know what i was talking about. except this 1 store which i am testing the fabric to see if it actually glows ... i think i might. but iwther way its not a very nice fabric, but if it glows i think it will be my best option. unless i use luminex. which is not back in my mind, just because i think it might be cool to work with, but i can't get in to see it till monday afternoon. I have a pattern, so thats not a problem. and i think its a nice pattern. for luminex or for any other fabric.
