The Glass captured behind-the-scenes footage of models getting ready to walk the runway, the controlled backstage chaos that accompanies any New York Fashion Week show, and intimate moments with Furstenberg, including a moment when she tapes a gold coin carried by her father in World War II to her shoe. It's a tradition she continues for good luck.The short film reveals impressive high definition video and sound quality of the augmented reality-enhanced glasses. The Glass is slated to feature a number of smartphone functions, including a video and still camera, the ability to receive messages, a calendar, and GPS features, among others.
