Holly Golightly probably wouldn’t wear her iPad in a front pocket pouch, but in a pinch it may be better than a toting a bulky bag.

As much as we’re crazy about the iPad, carrying it around is still kinda awkward — remember the condom case? — but an Australian company has come up with an intriguing solution.

The iDress positions itself as kind of a chic, kangaroo iPad pouch, a cute to-the-knee number in black cotton sateen, perfect for when it comes time to put down your mouse and pick up a glass of prosecco, if their marketing speak is to be believed.

“iDress is a black, short-sleeved dress with a built in protected pocket to carry and store your iPad without hindering your movement or style…. the iDress is the perfect work/day dress, comfortable and iPad compatible. From the office to the cocktail lounge, read your iPad comfortably on your way to the next party in town.

It also comes in a T-shirt version (unisex! in black or white!) though this seems to offer less camouflage and perhaps lead to more questions of the groan-worthy is that an-iPad-or-are-you-happy-to-see-me? variety.

iDress and iTee launch when the iPad hits stores down under, May 28, and retail for about $74 (89 AUD) for the cocktail dress or circa $36 (44AUD) for the tee.
