Ah, how I love the bizarre and the ridiculous! It’s good for a laugh and makes you feel better about your own ideas. I thought I’d share some eatable clothing with you all. No, not the usual eatable underwear you buy from kinky stores. (Have you guys ever tasted that stuff? It tastes like utter crap! Don’t ask me how I know that.) I’m talking entire outfits made from desserts, fruit and veggies! The real kind of food.

Excuse Me, Ma’am, May I Eat Your Hat?

I love this one. It’s an entire wedding dress make from profita rolls! Valentyn Shtefano, of Ukraine, surprised his bride by making her wedding dress out of 1,500 profita rolls, which took two months to bake and make. Even her crown, bouquet and necklace were made from caramelised sugar. His wife, Viktoriya, said “at first, it was a little embarrassing”. I don’t blame her. Shtefano, whose fingernails are stained with food colouring, has been known to create unconventional sweets, just like the pair of breasts he made that are on display at a pizzeria. Hmm, what can I say, this man loves his work.

You may have seen this a couple years ago? Jean-Paul Gaultier turned croissants and baguettes into haute couture shoes, bras and even Oscar-night dresses at his Pain et Culture exhibition. Gaultier employed British bakers to create the clothing designs. The bakers and sculptors reportedly worked months on the designs. Ah, he cheated, Gaultier had the dirty work done for him.

Excuse Me, Ma’am, May I Eat Your Hat?

I love a woman fighting for a good cause! Model and actress Alicia Mayer wore a bikini made of lettuce while posing for photographers during a photo shoot for a new People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) campaign promoting vegetarianism in Manila. Yes, you go girrrrl.

Excuse Me, Ma’am, May I Eat Your Hat?

How much does the lady in the carrot dress look like Joan Cusack?

Excuse Me, Ma’am, May I Eat Your Hat?

The Summer Salad Fashion Show in New York included real and faux fruit and veggies. I actually really want that carrot top hat…

Hmm… It all has you wondering whether your lunch would make a nice handbag, doesn’t it?

Big love,
