Bejeweled Armoured Yashmak By Shaun Leane for Alexander McQueen: Spring/Summer (2000)
Designed for McQueen’s Spring/Summer 2000 collection, which initially explored the clashing of Middle Eastern and Western cultures, The Yashmak, a veil concealing all of the face except the eyes, which is worn by some Muslim women in public. This metal Yashmak is part of a collection of jewelry that was designed for Alexander McQueen by Leane, who was not only a collaborator of McQueen’s, but also a good friend. Considered to be one of the top twenty most spectacular pieces in McQueen’s oeuvre, the Yashmak is created from aluminum plates cast from molds. The plates are linked by chains and inset at the center with red, Cabochon Swarovski crystals.

Just had a thought:
McDonald's should have helped promote the Barbie movie by bringing back the Barbie collectibles. They could have worn the outfits from the movie.
