Dressing On The Cheap
Dress Made Out of 196 Packages of Ramen Noodles
Potential
Well… I’m not sure what to make of this dress… apparently it’s fashioned out of 196 packages of ramen noodles. I don’t imagine it would be too comfortable but I must say the model certainly wears it well.
“Karina from Virginia sent me some pictures of her art project. The project was called “Wearable Artâ€, and Karina made a dress out of ramen packets. It took 196 packets of ramen, and some chop-sticks to construct! No word on what grade Karina received, but it looks like “A†work to me. I figure that a 10 cents per packet, and some free chopsticks with take-out chinese, you could make this dress for about $20. That’s not counting the “worth†you get from eating all the ramen.”
Implications - The fashion industry is based solely on remaining avant-garde, causing designers to look towards new and inventive materials as well as innovative designs.
