According to the New York Times, LED "fronts" that give wearers glowing, multicolored smiles are a huge hit with Japanese teens. (I'm not sure how much faith I place in the Times' trendspotting.)
The adult in me thinks this doesn't look terribly healthy--or attractive. The girl mastermind in me thinks a set of glowing teeth could really scare the socks off people who don't follow Japanese fashion trends.
The video is creepy, but the pictures look Photoshopped. Still...*shivers* That would be great for Halloween!

i think i've seen those before. . . .maybe my brother had a set? if so i think he actually did get them from the halloween store that comes around to get set up every fall.
ReplyDeleteConsidering Japanese teens lived through the ko-gal faze in the 90's, I don't doubt it.
ReplyDeleteNellie- I FREAKING LOVE DOCTOR WHO.
Just sayin.
Also... This would add a lot to a cheshire cat costume.
ReplyDeleteThat's very... Intereating and creative XD The Japanese have the strangest technology hehe...
ReplyDeleteUuuuhh... sounds... interesting O_O Japanese come up with the weirdest stuff I must say.
ReplyDeleteThis is creepy. I have never seen this before! WOW!!!!! What an invention!
ReplyDeletethe same girl is in the pic four times if u look close
ReplyDelete~lucy check out my blog plz =D
Maybe it's quadruplets. Ha.
ReplyDeleteActually, I think it's just that the top half is the same as the bottom half of the picture, so everyone appears at least twice.
ReplyDeleteThis is so creepy...but would be great for Halloween..

YEEK!
ReplyDeletethat is really weird...
ReplyDeletebut i would love to have glowing teeth!!!
I'd believe almost anything being described as a youth tend anywhere in the world. No matter how bizarre, inexplicable, or just a plain ol' style non sequitor. After all, I've spent all this morning riding with a bunch of middle aged cyclists, who think glowing, fluorescent hi-vis yellow tops and shiny lycra black bottoms make a matching, balanced wardrobe. Expecting better judgement from teens? Why?
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, this does look creepy.
Robert in San Diego, not at all ashamed to say I got dropped by an eighty year old lady today.
Very unattractive, but awesome! I would love to see random peoples reactions to this while I walked around at night. xD
ReplyDeleteI was freaked out enough the first time I woke up and saw the cat's eyes glowing back at me in the dark. She may have been a psychopathic bird assassin a lousy disposition (definitely not a "morning cat") but I miss her.

ReplyDeleteHmmm... Kind of Cool, but I doubt that it's healthy...
