Walter Raes has just unveiled an interesting new approach to the simple halter top by using tampons. British artist Raes has proven that you really can make anything wearable by sewing together a series of tampons to create a very unique shirt -- truly period fashion.
I suppose it would be a great shirt to wear at parties; all of those party fowls would be cleaned up in no time!
Among the tampon top, Raes has created other wearable pieces out of mops, running shoes, balloons and even fishing line. Wearable art really is all around you. Tune in for more period fashion.
