Calling all cyborgs. Remember that metal glove Beyonce wore? The look may become as ubiquitous as thigh-high boots. Designer Lorraine Schwartz created the glove for the singer’s I Am ... Sasha Fierce album. “She wanted something a little bit harder and robotic,” says Schwartz. To get the “superhero” look, the jeweler made a wax mold of Beyonce’s hand, and then cast the hand-piece in lightweight titanium. Schwartz reports she’s since seen regular folk wearing knock-offs. Does this mean we’ll all be fembots soon? [NYMag.com]

Wow, the wacky weave, that “Pirates of Penzance” top and an Edward Scissorhands/robot glove> can’t get anymore fake than this….

“Beyoncé, is it easy wearing that glove?”
“No, it’s hard.”
I think it’d be awesome in the case of bar fights. Especially if it had metallic claws.
