Artist Olivia Mears is the genius behind the creation of this pizza prom dress. Mears is no stranger to combining food and fashion, having made a [Taco Belle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/italian-taco) gown ([Taco Bell](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheesy-enchilada-dipping-taco) plus "Beauty and the Beast") a few years ago. Mears' latest foodie dress features all the toppings you'd expect to see on a pizza, and even looks like the real deal when the wearer lays down. Unlike the taco dress, the pizza prom dress was created to win a contest.

The artist used the dress as her entry into Domino's "Piece of the Pie" contest. Part of the contest tasked Twitter and [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wanderlust-co-x-rubirosa) users with posting a photo with #PieceofthePieContest. There will be 50 winners of the contest, and each one will get a check for $10,000. If Mears ends up winning, the two weeks she spent on the pizza prom dress and accompanying pizza box throne will have been well worth her time.
