5 Gum Wrapper Prom Dress – What Do You Think?
I love 5 Gum. It has lasting flavor and leaves my breath fresh. However, I wouldn’t dream of chewing the gum and making a dress out of the wrappers!?!? But then again I’m not an Iowa teen *lol*
“An Iowa teen is all bubbly over her one-of-a-kind high school prom dress she made out of gum wrappers. Elizabeth Rasmuson made her dress — and matching vest for her date — out of blue and white wrappers from Wrigley’s “5 gum.”
The high school junior says she got the idea after hearing about someone making a dress out of duct tape. She and her boyfriend began collecting gum wrappers last August. Rasmuson says she quit counting after 200.
Since the wrappers break easily, Rasmuson finished her dress with a vinyl topcoat.

I like it!! Kudos to her!! I think it’s good enough to wear (not by me o_O) but she can rock it, lol! But seriously though, it’s nice. The vest is cool too!
I think it’s very creative. At the very same time other dresses have been made in the past out of similar materials that have been ridiculed. I think it’s time we become more consistent. Fashion is as fashion does.
