The fashion show, which was hosted by Project Runway alum Nick Verreos, highlighted both eye-popping and conspicuous wearable technology, like a belt with hidden phone chargers and pieces from the Misfit Swarovski fitness tracker collection that counts your steps. LAS VEGAS — From jackets with built in GPS to LED-lit dresses that show your latest tweets, the tech world is trying its hardest to be fashionable.

This dress is color sensitive. By touching any color to a sensor trigger at the top of the dress, the LED lights (which cascade across the fabric) change.

The model wore Bluez 2 by Aftershokz wireless bone conduction headphones, which lets you listen to music without cutting out the outside world (so you can still hear what's happening around you).

Wearing the Snapdragon-powered ODG R-7 glasses by Osterhout Design Group, the augmented reality eyewear lets you play games, watch movies and surf the web directly via the built-in screen and essentially floats before your eyes.

Notification dress

This dress syncs up with your smartphone and displays incoming call alerts, social media alerts and other messages directly on the embedded screen.

The MeU display is built into the vest and can send messages, show logos and feature LED messages (something you might see at promotional events).

Personalization

This one-sleeved dress displays a falling pedal animation. While there isn't much use for having a display like this on a dress, it's all about personalization and adding personality to what you're wearing.
