FINRA to Regulate Banker Attire

Get ready for transparency in banking to reach a whole new level if this Dutch design team has their way. Studio Rooseagaarde (any relation to @KevinRoose?) is creating what it believes is the avant garde in banker attire: a suit that becomes invisible when a banker is lying.

The suit utilizes "smart e-foils" to detect increased heart rate and other biological markers which indicate deception. Studio head Dan Rooseagaarde admits that the suit is designed with bankers in mind and is based on current lie detector technology and methodology.

Some folks (at least the folks at SmartMoney) hope the technology catches on and banking regulators make it mandatory. Having seen some of you guys, this is pretty much everyone's worst f**king nightmare. Do you even lift, bro?

All joking aside, I can see where something like this would come in handy in the bars. We're all pretty much lying non-stop when talking to women in bars, so these suits would really separate the men from the boys, so to speak. Natural selection at its finest.

Anyway, I'll leave the designer to explain the concept to you, and then you can tell me if this self-described "hippie out to change the world" has partaken maybe one too many shrooms. Who knows, it might be all the fashion in a couple years.
