High heels? High heels? Holy christ, feet are useless enough in freefall without strapping a weapon onto them.

In zero G, flowing hair and draped fabrics are going to give 'fashion victim' a meaning it doesn't usually have.

I don't know, flowing fabric and hair are going to look fine in free-fall -- providing said victim can keep moving, or station themselves in front of the air-conditioner.
Not so fine if said victim has to get into a pressure suit or rescue ball, unless the couture is smart enough to become a pressure suit or rescue ball when need arises. Might need some kind of implant to keep the hair under control, too.
As a female, I just want to say that at first glance, the white outfit in the second picture looks like it was modeled after a maxi pad therefore instantly making the first pic's dresses look like tampons. I though it was all the designer's conceptual statement of... something.
I'm guessing that the designs with lots of loose material flapping around aren't going to do so well.
I notice a distinct lack of lasers, mirrors, and nudity. Worst space fashion show ever.
