Inspired by the movement of the muscle wire, I thought about women eating and drinking in public while wearing the niqab. They usually use one hand to lift the niqab away from their face just enough to expose their mouth for the food but not so much where anyone else can see their face.
What if you could embed muscle wire into the niqab and have it lift away from the woman's face so that she can have both hands to use to eat and drink?
