@#1, ack, technical goof, somehow this episode is missing our music slate with credits for all the music sources -- we'll fix that today!

lets make this clear,
its a fashion show
that happens to have _some_ wearable tech in it.

It is in no way a "wearable technology fashion show".

Not to blame bbtv but yet again someone throws around cool tech words to market something.

Not as bad as steampunk, but still not great.
