Fecal Matter's new opera gloves look freakishly like actual hands.
for sure look like they landed from another planet, down to the meticulously manicured pinky toes.
Their latest fashion idea seems primed for the age of social distancing: opera gloves that look freakishly like actual hands. “We were channeling the archetypes of fashion, like ’50s Dior and these elegant staples, like these gloves that have a futuristic spin on something classic,” explains Bhaskaran over the phone. Even still, their pairs are not what you’d call classic.
Where in the past they have worked with Sarah Sitkin, an artist specializing in silicone reproductions of human bodies, Fecal Matter opted to use a manufacturer within the world of rubber dolling, a fetish in which the skin of a female rubber doll is worn as a suit. “This company was perfect because they already make silicone molds of hands for this kind of sub-group,” says Dalton.
Like the shoes, the gloves are customizable and come in an array of different skin tones, tattoos, and hair. They’re considerably lower in price than the footwear, clocking in at $1,500 per pair, and seemingly easier to wear, too. “The procedure for the gloves is much less intricate than for the shoes but the effect is very similar,” says Bhaskaran. “The cool thing also is that the gloves stretch and the skin shoes are much more solid.
It’s a sentiment shared by their community of free-thinking fashion obsessives. “So many of our fans have been messaging us, like kids from Italy and China, telling us how depressed they are. For people who understand what we do, it is also a moment to realize that they can still express themselves. We just have to find ways to connect creative expression,” says Bhaskaran. “Launching the gloves right now will hopefully make people smile—and obviously still freak them out.
