'Le Salon du Chocolat,' or 'The Chocolate Show,' in Paris is home to chocolate dresses that are strutted down the runway by TV hosts, famous French dancers and singers. The fashion is elaborate and edible, with delicious cocoa integrated into every piece.
Among the most stunning examples was a floor-length gown that had incredible floral chocolate details all along the dress. With an asymmetrical bottom, the clothing looked quite hard to move in without breaking off a piece of the sweet goodness.
Another design was a seductive skin-tight dress that bore the deepest of V necks, traveling all the way down to the model's bellybutton. The fine detailing ended around the hips and was joined with a brown floor-length fringe skirt. Some of the chocolate dresses even had pops of color, with a pink sweetheart neckline as well as a multicolored amour-like dress.
