SolarShade was designed as a wearable sculpture that takes the 3-dimensional avant-garde fashion trend into utility and function. A speculative product by nature, it postulates data-gathering and energy-harvesting abilities as the future of fashion.

The year is 2050, global warming would have swept over the nation, putting us in hot and unbearable climates. Street walkers round their backs and hide their faces from the scorching heat. SolarShade balances perfectly at this deformed-but-now-normal posture.
