this is the most recent arxiv paper on adversarial clothing (since a lot of people are speculating about if it's possible): [2511.16020] Physically Realistic Sequence-Level Adversarial Clothing for Robust Human-Detection Evasion https://share.google/VMhtGB8P2kTMorGx6

they boast an 80%+ success rate at evading the instance level (each time you walk past an ai enabled camera) detection with sequential models (more difficult to fool as they see more of your sillouette).

not saying they are fashionable and obviously aren't commercially available yet, but it definitely seems possible.

my main complaint is i wish these companies could make a good baseline so we could compare their efficacy. evaluating the trade off with the level of drip.
