Space Fashion Quote
Space fashion is important and will be in the next generation of space suits. I don't know how much we will see at the beginning because simpler versions of space attire are going to be what people are interested in. But there will be some sense of fashion involved. I would like something futuristic if I was going up into space,—David Jankowski, President and Founder of DestinySpace.CNN: Space Fashion is Here
