In the best mode, the invention includes a door mounted on a structure at least one hinge; a mirror mounted on the door; first and second illumination elements mounted on the door on opposite sides of the mirror; and means for controlling the light output by the illumination elements. In the illustrative embodiment, the illumination elements are light emitting diode arrays with outputs filtered by diffusers. A control system is mounted in the door for controlling the light output by the illumination elements. In one embodiment, the light output by the illumination elements is controlled by a first switch mounted in a hinge of the door and a second switch mounted in a door knob on the door. The control system allows the user to control the color and intensity profile of the diode arrays mounted on the door. A camera may be included in the system along with a wireless transceiver in the control system to send images of the user wearing virtual clothing from a database displayed on an integrated touchscreen and electronic display to a friend or family member via the user's smartphone. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An illumination system for a dressing room comprising: a door mounted on a structure; an elongate dressing mirror constructed of planar high-quality distortion free reflective material mounted on the door; first and second illumination elements mounted on the door on opposite sides of the mirror to project illumination directly toward a user standing in front of the mirror, whereby the mirror is sandwiched between the illumination elements; and an arrangement for controlling the light output by the illumination elements. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The invention of claim 1 wherein said illumination elements are light emitting diode arrays. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The invention of claim 2 wherein each of the diode arrays is covered by a diffuser. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The invention of claim 1 wherein the mirror includes an integrated touchscreen. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The invention of claim 1 wherein the arrangement for controlling the light output by the illumination elements includes a control system mounted in the door electrically coupled to a variable resistor. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The invention of claim 1 wherein the arrangement for controlling the light output by the illumination elements includes a light controller system. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The invention of claim 6 wherein the light controller system includes means for controlling the color of the light output by the illumination elements. ### Claim 8 (depends on 6) The invention of claim 6 wherein the light controller system includes an arrangement for controlling the gradient intensity of light output by the illumination elements. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The invention of claim 1 wherein the illumination system includes a camera. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The invention of claim 1 wherein the illumination system includes a smartphone. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The invention of claim 1 wherein the illumination system includes a virtual clothing database server. ### Claim 12 An illumination system comprising: a door mounted on a structure via at least one hinge, said door having a frame and a knob; a mirror mounted on the door, said mirror including an integrated electronic display, said mirror and integrated display being implemented with a reflective surface or film mounted on a touchscreen display; first and second illumination elements mounted on the door on opposite sides of the mirror, said illumination elements being light emitting diode arrays, each of the diode arrays being covered by a diffuser; a control system mounted on or in the door; a smartphone adapted to be wirelessly coupled to the control system with software for pulling images of clothing from a remote database and sending the images to the controller whereby the controller sends signals to the integrated display such that the images appear on the user in the mirror and the integrated display as virtual clothing and a fiber optic camera concealed in the frame of the door adapted to send images to the smartphone via said control system. ### Claim 13 An illumination system for a dressing room comprising: a door having a knob mounted on a structure via at least one hinge; an elongate dressing mirror constructed of planar high-quality distortion free reflective material mounted on the door; first and second illumination elements mounted on the door on opposite sides of the to project illumination directly toward a user standing in front of the mirror, whereby the mirror is sandwiched between the illumination elements; and an arrangement for controlling the light output by the illumination elements, said means for controlling the light output by the illumination elements including: a switch mounted in the hinge or door knob to effect actuation of the light illumination elements; and a variable resistor mounted in the door knob to enable the user to control the intensity of the illumination elements.
