Metal Apparel

[intellectualammo]

I remember in Ayn Rand's play Night of January the 16th a character in it, by the name of Bjorn Faulkner bought some sort of a metal mesh dress, a "platinum gown" "fine mesh, soft as silk" for his love interest, mistress named Karen Andre, and heated it in a fire, she put it on her naked body "as hot as she could stand" wearing it for him, and as it cooled it took on a "silver sheen. If it burn her, he'd kiss the burn, "wild like tiger!". Really cool sounding when I read about it. That play is actually still every once in a while a production in various play houses across the country. I'd love to get a chance to see it someday.

I like this style of this guy's metal clothing Brooks Coleman, (http://www.etsy.com/shop/brooksbot75 and http://dogjoblabs.com/), all of it I think is intimate appareal so far:

I imagine that they might be cold feeling. But when it was posted on another forum I am one, I immediately was remined of the scene in Rand's play.

Now this one, looks like if you have large breast size, it'd accomadate them, by enlarging the spiral as needed to fit into it:

Anyone know of any other such appareal? I know a photographer from online, she just bought the metal corset one, and she's going to have a photo shoot with it on one of her dolls. That's be great, she does wonderful work:

Those are pretty intricate and interesting. Not very practical, for several reasons.

At first I thought you were going to talk about chain mail, which is what it sounds like in the Rand quote.

Right, it would appear so. Doesn't look like it's for casual wear, to say the least. But I wonder if there is any that are more...comfortable? Metal clothing, I guess is just more for show, effect, rather than causual wear. But I just found the association, with that of the play, interesting enough, to make a thread about it and the clothing that might be like that of that scene. Saw this Coleman guy talked about on another forum, but I made the association. I'll have to see how Stacy likes it, it's really for her I think, but she's going to put one of her dolls in it to see, once she gets it.

I imagine one could wear it to the beach, get some cool tan lines. I saw some cut outs of clothe somewhere that one could wear, and get some cool tan line designs, but that's off topic some.
