PHELPS INTO METAL

Jewelry line Skeletal Metal — which fashions rings, necklaces, earrings and bracelets based on reconstructive plates used to mend broken bones — holds its launch party just in time to cash in on maximum Halloween-induced creepiness tonight at Simon at Palms Place.
Swimmer Michael Phelps will be at the pool-side restaurant, as will UFC light heavyweight champion Forrest Griffin, gold-winning Olympic swimmer Eric Vendt, volleyball silver medalists Stacy Sykora and Nicole Davis, soccer player Abby Wambach, beach volleyball’s Nicole Branagh and volleyball gold medalist Rich Lambourne along with Reed Johnson of the Chicago Cubs, Skeletal Metal founder Dr. Michael Crovetti, and partners Marty Cordova, formerly of the Minnesota Twins and Anthony Bonifazio.
If you’re lucky, maybe Phelps will break a bone just for you, so you can get your very own unique piece of jewelry. Ask him nicely — we’re sure it’ll be fine.
