Now if there is one thing I love seeing its things that are a little bit more homebrew than your normal pro stuff and so when I saw a link to a prom dress made by a kid using chewing gum wrappers I thought, hmm sounds interesting…
So here’s the deal, from what I gather Prom is a pretty big deal to American kids and girls especially freak out over what they are going to wear and have to make it perfect (at least this is what I gather from watching far too many MTV style programs) So for a girl to choose to make her own dress and then to think of doing it from recycled chewing gum wrappers must have been a big deal!
I fully commend her for doing it though and to be honest it doesn’t look half bad and she’s got quite a lot of exposure from doing it. Everyone in her school now knows who she is and when your a kid that’s, like, totally the most important thing evarrrr. I wonder if she decided to go the whole nine yards and has matching crisp packet underwear?
She has actually shown a real talent for being able to knock together a nice outfit and has surely got a career in making some amazing dresses in the future if she carries on with great ideas like this, it can’t be easy making something that looks half decent out of foil gum wrappers!
