Lady Gaga gives a fresh meaning to the word ‘accessory’. After going under surgical knives for a hip treatment, she was left with insufficient mobility which cut off all of her options except two; hopping around with the aid of crutches, or comfortably wheeling all over in a wheelchair. She chose the latter option and in typical Gaga style, spiced it up with an attention-grabbing vanity tweak. Gold!
Gaga got herself a 24k gold-plated wheelchair specially created for her by Ken Borochov of the luxury brand, Mordecai. The unique vehicle contains special features which include a black tufted calf leather seat, a removable leather canopy, a padded leg rest, and gold-plated brakes.
The vintage modeled vehicle gives one the feeling that it belongs to the antiquated English Nobles, precisely of the famous Victorian Era. Borochov, the chair designer was beside himself with fascination, revealing that his inspiration came from a throne.
I certainly wasn’t expecting that phone call and have never done a wheelchair but am always up for a challenge and was thrilled to create what I affectionately dubbed the Chariot, a chair fit only for a queen,’ Borochov explained.
The chair, named Emma, was first revealed by Lady Gaga on Twitter last month.
The use of the chair was necessary, after the Bad Romance singer suffered a severe injury to her right thigh, which made her cancel all of her 25 remaining U.S concerts.
