With all the muggings going around I've decided to get one of these.

ON A narrow Tokyo street, Aya Tsukioka demonstrates clothing designs she hopes will ease Japan's growing fear of crime.

With a deft motion, Ms Tsukioka, a 29-year-old fashion designer, lifts a flap on the front of her skirt to reveal a sheet of cloth printed in bright red, with a soft drink logo partly visible.

By holding the sheet fully open and stepping to the side of the road, she shows how a woman walking alone could elude pursuers — by disguising herself as a vending machine.

    i know at least 4 people that are going to want this, and none for the purpose of eluding muggers.
