Pen Nib Dress may defeat Lady Gaga in creation

Lady Gaga came to prominence as a recording artist following the release of her debut album The Fame (2008), which was a critical and commercial success that topped charts around the world and included the international number-one singles "Just Dance" and "Poker Face". After embarking on the The Fame Ball Tour, she followed the album with The Fame Monster (2009), which spawned the worldwide hit singles "Bad Romance", "Telephone" and "Alejandro". The album's success allowed her to embark on the eighteen-month long Monster Ball Tour, which later became one of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. Her most recent album Born This Way (2011) topped the charts of most major markets and generated more international chart-topping singles, including "Born This Way", "Judas" and "The Edge of Glory". Besides her ball mill musical career, she involves herself with humanitarian causes and LGBT activism.Lady Gaga's designer had better watch his back. One of the latest creations to come out of elite fashion school Central St Martins in London is right up the singer's street. The dress has been crafted out of 795 caligraphy pen nibs - and they are all connected to small motors that make them vibrate just like Lady Gaga's "breathing" dress did

Student fashion: The dress has been crafted out of 795 caligraphy pen nibs - and they are all connected to small motors that make them vibrate The Pen Nib Dress is a cream A-line number with a rectangular panel covered in metal nibs on the front of the gown. It was designed and made by creative technologist John Nussey and Central St. Martins Womenswear student Steven Tai for his final degree show

Speaking to Wired.co.uk, Nussey said that the final result was achieved through a lot of trial and error: "We looked at a number of different ways to make the pen nibs move and how to wire up that number of nibs "S.teven had strong ideas as to how many he wanted, and we had to get enough of the nibs to make an impact

"It was finding a balance between the technical possibilities and the creative idea." They eventually settled for the same motors that make mobile phones vibrate because they are cheap and don't require very much power. Rows of metal pen nibs were then linked together with a switch for every different row which meant that they could all be activated separately. Moving one row as a time gives the panel on the front of the dress a beautiful shimmering effect. The speed and pattern of movement can be changed to create a range of different effects
