Vessel is a series of garments specially designed for the female body. Using cutting edge technology embedded into the fabric these garments are able to monitor the actions and physical well being of the female. The Fertility Dress responds to internal stimulus and changes colors based on menstruation cycle and the cleanliness of the wearer. The dress turns blue when ovulating, red when menstruating, and glows white with excellent hygiene and yellow with poor hygiene.
