New York University student Hana Newman has designed a dress to combat pollutants in the air. The “8” dress is a seemingly strange transparent bubble dress that filters the air for the user. It is also an art piece and a statement.

Catalytic Clothing, in a project hoping to combine fashion, science, and a better future for the environment has designed a dress capable of purifying the air around it. “Herself” is a dress sprayed with a concrete mixture that purportedly absorbs pollutants in nearby air, and while that sounds pretty out there, it totally exists. In fact, the company that created the concrete, Italcementi, has already built some pollutant-absorbing structures across Europe.
