A weekly roundup of what’s going on at the intersection of fashion, tech, and the web.

WEARABLE TECH COUTURE SHOW OF THE WEEK

OK, so what with men’s, women’s, Spring/Summer, Autumn/Winter, Resort, Pre-Fall and so on, does the world really need ANOTHER type of fashion show? CuteCircuit might well have just changed our mind—they’ve just staged the world’s very first wearable tech haute couture catwalk. Unlike some of the clunkier attempts to bridge the fashion/tech world designs were as stylish as they were savvy with innovative uses of LED fabric. Kinda impressed tbh, but how do you wash it?!

BRAND TAGGING APP OF THE WEEK

Is it still acceptable to say ‘swag’ in 2013? Well either way, there’s a new app out that’s stepping photo tagging functionality up a notch—a social media app that tags the pictures you take with the fashion brands you’re wearing in them. Taking a casual selfie of yourself eating breakfast? Swaag,it (:/) will recognize that Hood by Air snapback/Versace tee and be sure to share it with your followers. Not only is it a great way to show off your style, it’s best feature lies in battling other users to see who has the most URL outfit, er, swag. Using one of your own pictures, you can battle any other photo in the app you like, whether it’s some new fresh kicks, or some joker pulling up his tee in the bathroom—it’s up to the online community to decide whose looks are going the hardest. Reckon you’re game enough? 

SPORTSWEAR TECH OF THE WEEK

Truth time: We’ve been slacking on our gym game lately. But that doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate those who look to make exercise easier for the people who do—enter Nike’s new Aeroloft apparel technology. Using movement-activated ventilation and laser-cut perforations, the Aeroloft 800 vest has the ability to keep the wearer warm without overheating when he/she is out on a run, effectively solving the insulation vs ventilation problem. Cool (or hot) right? The tech will be applied to a range of sports categories in the near future, so stay tuned.
