Ni Hao, My Ass

Ni Hao, My Ass is a wearable device for asian women who experience racist catcalling. The dress empowers the wearer to denounce the aggressors in a provocative but non-confrontational, non-verbal manner by automating the process.

The user dons a specially designed dress and pair of underwear. When the user experiences a racist catcall, she activates the automated response by pressing a discreetly placed button. The button triggers a motor that raises the back of the dress and reveals the eye-catching red underwear with her retort, “ni hao, racist”.
