Yes.

Absolutely not. If you watched the video, the end result was a garment that was not stuck to the wearer. The straps were independent from the shoulders. The rest of it flowed and fluttered like real fabric, and not like the typical "spray on dress" we've seen before. It's not a coating once finished. It's a separate thing.
Notice how the fabric didn't cling to her inner legs, but bridged that gap instead.
Now I agree that I'd like to see how durable this thing is once it's been washed. I'll accept whatever wash method is standard for a fancy dress. That is: if it can't be tossed into a normal washing machine, but can be handwashed with Woolite in the sink, then that's good enough for me.
I think it adheres somewhat/partially to skin. When the assistant slides down the first shoulder strap in the video, there seems to be some resistance, as if the material was gently stuck to the skin and then lightly released/pulled away. That seems consistent with the Fabrican webpage, which says that the fibres "adhere to each other and to the surface sprayed". I imagine that there's a portion of the video not shown where the assistant gently tugs other parts of the fabric away from the skin.
