When haute couture and new technology collide the end product is, apparently, cyberstreet fashion. This final programme in the series looks into the future to examine what the best-dressed 21st-century whizz-kids will be wearing. Top designers, including Edina Ronay and Jeff Banks , produced a wardrobe of futuristic fashions which were modelled and filmed at a special catwalk show. The garments are designed to allow the gadgetry of this technological age to be worn as fashion accessories. Edina Ronay says of her creation: "It will hold everything the beautiful space chick will need, from communications to her make-up."

Italy v Norway
An evening of great importance to Ireland, as their group E rivals
Italy and Norway meet in this match coming live from the Giants Stadium, New York. Norway's emergence as a World Cup force was one of the big surprises of the qualifying competition - as England found to their cost. The Norwegians drew 1-1 at Wembley and then beat England 2-0 in Oslo in what was the lowest point in Graham Taylor 's management era.
Their defensive organisation was again in evidence when they battled out a goalless draw in a warm-up match against
England at Wembley last month. Despite their part in England's elimination, Norway's progress will be keenly followed with many of their squad, including Erik Thorstvedt (Spurs), Henning Berg (Blackburn),
Erland Johnsen (Chelsea) and Jan-Age Fjortoft (Swindon), playing in the Premiership last season.
The Italians will provide
Norway, who have not qualified for the finals since 1938, with a stern examination. The Italians were World champions in 1934, 1938 and 1982 and come to the United States bracketed with Brazil and Germany as the nations most likely to succeed.
Introduced by Bob Wilson with David O'Leary and Gary Lineker , plus an off-beat look at the tournament so far with Fantasy FootbaM's Frank Skinner and David Baddiel.
