Witness a fashion and science breakthrough – the world’s smartest and toughest little black dress.

Made from a ‘miracle material’ discovered by scientists in Manchester, this unique dress changes colour and design in response to the wearer’s breathing, using tiny LED lights.

At just one atom thick, graphene is a million times thinner than human hair, is stronger than steel and conducts electricity better than anything else known to humankind.

See how its amazing properties have been embraced by the fashion world for the first time in a high-tech garment that could become the future of the high street.

Created by intu Trafford Centre, Manchester

This innovation is the result of a collaboration between intu, owner of many of the UK’s biggest shopping centres, wearable tech company Cute Circuit and the National Graphene Institute at the University of Manchester.

Hi-tech meets high-fashion as intu premiers the little black graphene dress of the future
