Iranian design students Raika Khorshidian and Maryam Heidaripour want to give Iranian women the advantage of being clearly seen when they walk at night.  The traditional black chador does little to help women stand out on the road, so the solution was to design a fabric with reflective design printed in a way that both enhances visibility and retains the beauty of traditional Islamic calligraphy.
 

Khorshidian and Heidaripour's prototype earned them a spot among the finalists for the 2011 INDEX award.
