A garment is constructed in the form of a torus. The wearer occupies one side of the loop; the remainder comes off over their shoulders and enters a backpack-mounted washer-dryer machine. The fabric re-emerges from beneath the machine penguin and joins on to the rest of the garment from below. This way,
the wearer never has to remove their clothes or change, but will always be wearing a (fairly) clean garment.
Issues to be resolved: how do the head, neck and arms stick out? Where does the water come from and go to?

Start with a torus with 3 continuous zippers. The one in front is kept zipped from the knees to neck and provides access for the head and legs (roughly, a knee length dress or tunic). The two on the sides are unzipped to provide arm holes. The zipper closures themselves can be motorized to maintain position while the cloth moves. |

Is laundering clothes the new Orrery? |

It's stored in a Klein Bottle in the backpack, stupid. |

OK [Mechy], I was starting to think velcro, but motorised zips is good. |

No this is not a laundry orrery, though that could be profitably ideaed by someone. |

I'm seeing this as more of a sari design, over one
shoulder, scrolling into the pack and unscrolling from
the bottom |

This is most appropriate for the comatose. |
