WHIRLPOOL - pret-a-porter |
Tuesday, 04 April 2006 |

Who needs the dry cleaner when you can own your own pret-a-porter? Made by Whirlpool, pret-a-porter
is a clever new device that de-wrinkles, deodorizes, and gentle dries
your clothes in your home. It's an instant pick me up for your clothes
when they're not dirty, just in desperate need of revitalization after
too many outings in sweaty, smoke filled bars and clubs.
With
the touch of a button odors are removed via a dry steam system. All you
need is a cup of water. The compact little unit is the size of a vacuum
cleaner and is also mobile. To mark the launch Whirlpool commissioned
British designer Antonio Berardi to create a range of one off pieces,
plus a limited edition of leather pret-a-porter cases, which make the
pret-a-porter look more like a very swanky piece of luggage. All
Whirlpool needs now is to throw a party in a sweaty, smoke filled night
club so we've got a good excuse to wheel out the pret-a-porter. It will
be available from Septemeber. by Lisa Evans
