The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Artist Olivia Mears, who appears to have a fascination with mixing Taco Bell and fashion, is back as Taco Belle.
The dress is a combination of tacos made from hand-painted card stock, tissue paper, and felt. The flowers and ruffles are made from Taco Bell wrappers. It’s truly a beauty.
To help promote her new variety of Special K cereal, British TV personality Tess Daly and Kellogg’s created a dress made entirely of the cereal’s ingredients.
The Cereal Dress was created using 4,000 stalks of wheat, 500 whole almonds, 800 cut almonds, 50 vanilla pods, 50 vanilla flowers, 450 whole apples, and 100 curled apple peels, preserved peels, and apple slices.
Pass the milk, and let’s enjoy this breakfast couture.

Can’t wait to see these on the runway…
