Flash Gordon 1935
This is what we thought fashion in space might be in 1935
A very interesting shorts, belt and Bavarian influenced skin tight long sleeved jersey top. The dress is cut away at the back ( a more fashion forward statement than practical everyday wear) as well as the beautiful hair....
Compare this to princess Leia
Gravity
One of the critical things about space is gravity or rather the lack of it. in space we either have micro gravity ie on the moon or zero gravity in the international space station. Both states mean that things happen differently to your clothes than on earth.
In Micro gravity drape works really slowly at about 1/10th of the speed on earth..(interesting things to play with)
In Zero gravity drape does not happen at all (Even more interesting things to play with).
So what will we wear?
