earlier this week fashion designer yumi katsura showed her latest wedding dresses
in japan modelled by the government's newly developed 'cybernetic human' the HRP-4C

4C strutted her stuff down the 10 meter catwalk to the beat of michael jackson's billie jean.
she turned to the crowd and said 'I've put on a wedding dress for the first time. i'm very

organizers were billing the event as the first of its kind in the world. read more
