Earlier today, the CFDA, Barney’s New York and Opening Ceremony announced simultaneous collaborations with Intel to produce and market wearable technology. The first matter of business: a co-designed “smart bracelet” created by Intel and Opening Ceremony to be carried exclusively by Barney’s. Having these multiple stamps of approval will no doubt speed up technology’s fashion factor.
