ever heard of photocromatic technology? ummm i haven't either. but itmay just be the new rage. accoding to wgsn, researchers in australia, led by phd student tony chen, have just developed a way to block harmful uv rays in wool fabrics. this means we can look forward to coats, sweaters, and chic knee length winter dresses that do double-duty of making us keeping us cute and cancer free (what more could a fashinista want!?) the only draw back - or benefit - ? the fabric changes colors. so far white fabrics which have been tested change to blue or red
