Designing Wearables People Want

The Wearable Tech Sector is red hot. Brands, designers, developers, and thought-leaders from many fields have thoughts racing about an array of potential inventions and innovation. But what are the Wearable uses and aesthetics that people really want? In which cases do they want them as bold statements and which as more of an integrated or hidden technology?
