Nicole McLaughlin, a designer in New York City, has an extraordinary gift for mixing unusual materials into wearable clothing and accessories. In the past, we've seen her bikini made of camera cases and her bra made of electric fans. Her latest project just posted on X and Instagram consists of a pair of tiny View-Masters serving as glasses.
Do you remember the View-Master? This is a fun toy that is like a little film strip projector that you could use at home.
By the way: Mattel still sells a modern version that uses virtual reality. Variety reports that a View-Master based movie is in pre-production, so maybe we'll see a revival of the toy that is iconic of 70s childhood.
