electric 
dress ... "electric light - to switch on the electric dress, new super-voltage fashion to dance the night away unrivaled in any darkened place. A shiny leather-like mini, bare shoulder black swung from strips of straps; slashed open at regular intervals to power-patches that light up from within at the dictates of a battery belt.
