The two directions I am going right now are to create something like the belt mentioned above, or something to help people interact more with those around them. The second one comes from a shirt(from xkcd) that tells people that you are willing to talk to them. I think a shirt that tells your level of sociability at that time would be an interesting idea. How many more conversations would you get in if your clothes said that you wanted people to talk to you.  On the same thread is a skirt that reacts when it is touched(http://absurdee.com/stir-it-on/).
