CBS) Fashion Week has just ended in New York.

When beautiful models strut the runways, the clothes they wear may be pretty, but really – are they practical?!

Well, it’s not just the beautiful people who appreciate fashion.

Techies need clothes, too!

And it was in that spirit that The Early Show’s Saturday Edition offered haute couture alternatives!

Andy Ihnatko, a tech columnist for the Chicago Sun-Times, stopped by with a runway show only a geek could love.

It was all about clothes and accessories that either incorporate technology or help you to carry and manage the tech you already have.

For years, ScotteVest has been designing clothing for people who carry lots of gadgets; it’s practical stuff that has been tested and retested.

A model wore the Quantum Jacket. It has independent channels for your phone headset and music player headphones that keeps them untangled and within reach by your collar whenever you need them; you can take your coat on and off without having to untangle yourself. The player goes into a pocket with a translucent window, so you can operate its controls without even taking it out. And there are individual pockets for just about any sort of tech you might want to carry … the coat has over two dozen of them! And it includes pockets for such items as your passport and airline tickets.

ScotteVest makes a whole line of clothes with these concepts. Underneath, one model wore their TEC Shirt, which is slim and light but also has that same system for organizing your cords and earbuds.
