Auto tailor

Ever trailed round clothes shops looking for the holy grail of something that

a)fits b)you can afford c)you like

Never again- I propose the establishment of a chain of 3 dimensional body mapping machines. You stand in the machine and laser measuring equipment produces a complete record of your physical form which is presented to you on a cdrom. This is already well established technology for smaller objects.

You then visit clothing manufacturers sites on the web, select cloths and styles that you like and upload your body map with your order. Computer controlled machines then design, cut and stitch the item to fit you absolutely perfectly.

You could actually have a 3d model of yourself wearing the proposed purchases rendered on the website to help you choose, no longer will ladies have to ask bored and exhausted spouses whether their bum "looks big in this", no more will we have to bite back the retort that its not the clothes that make your bum look big, its all that chocolate you ate you silly moo.

After a short period the exquisitely tailored apparel arrives at your home in one of those excitingly large flat boxes surrounded by fragrant tissue paper in a pastel hue.

Just think-shoes that fit perfectly, shirt cuffs that protrude precisely one inch from the jacket sleeve, non-baggy trousering of perfect length, not having to drag round appalling shopping malls.

Investors welcome.
