The future is here. A man from Delhi has invented a scarf that works like an invisibility cloak, and celebs can't get enough of it.

When you're living in the public eye, the paparazzi manages to hunt you down wherever you hide. To address this concern, Dutch-born Saif Siddiqui, the founder of Access All Brands, has created the 'anti-flash scarf' aka the ISHU, that allows the wearer to divert flash photography, making their face appear pitch black.

Have a look at it:

How cool is this?

When asked about his brilliant creation, Saif told Decoded Magazine, "In 2009, I was visiting my family in Amsterdam with a couple of friends and we took a picture on an iPhone in front of a bike. We noticed the picture had been slightly ruined because of the reflector on the bike. I thought it was pretty cool that something messed up the picture."

The Art of the Scarf

He further explained, "I started experimenting with different ideas. It had to be something which worked for every occasion and something that ‘Goes with every outfit’. The ISHU scarf was just that. The ISHU scarf effectively allows an individual to control what pictures and videos are taken of them. There are no more unwanted pictures and videos on Snapchat, Instagram, or Facebook!"

Now, you can run AND you can hide

Sufi | 7 years ago | Reply This ‘indivisibility' scarf seems to be inspired from Sindhi Ajrak.
Malik Saab | 7 years ago | Reply I am into Textile business. If you coat the fabric with glass nanospheres then its surface becomes highly reflective. It is not an invention of this Indian guy. There are many patents on this issue. Express tribune can do more research while using the word "Invention". Also Paparazzi photographers know it very well. That is why they have multiple cameras and lenses. The lenses with long focal length solve this issue.
