Japanese fashion designer Tae Ashida has created some pieces that are literally OUT OF THIS WORLD. Designed for Japanese astronaut Naoko Yamazaki, Ashida's blue cardigan and short pants outfit were sent off into space on Monday, April 5th. The US space shuttle Discovery took off on a historic mission, which put more women in orbit than ever before. Ashida says of the experience,
""As a female designer, I chose a design and color with a sense of grace ... so that she can feel at ease as she carries out a tough mission in a male-dominated, bleak atmosphere. It's like a dream come true to see my clothes worn in space," said Ashida. "I'm looking forward to seeing her wear my design." We love it!
