<p>AbFab! I am grey with envy.</p>
<p>I can’t believe the article didn’t mention the real reason for her wearing the dress: a chance at a $5000 college scholarship (The “Stuck @ Prom Scholarship Contest”): <a href=“http://www.duckproducts.com/[/url]”>Duct Tape, Packaging Tape, Moving, Shipping | Duck Brand;
<p>At this site you can see the winners (and others) from previous years.</p>
<p>there was a show on mtv called made…i think this girl wanted 2 be prom queen. her dress was made out of duct tape…and it was so much cooler- it had like intertwining and different colors…haha it was awesome =D. although i haven’t checked out the site ^ so maybe there are more.</p>
<p><em>edit</em> ok i just looked through that site…wow! hahah that’s amazing.</p>
<p>And my husband thinks I am wasting my time at CC! My only question, why did she stick with silver, so many pretty colored duct tapes these days! I wonder if this was on the calendar I gave him last year…365 days of duct tape…</p>
<p>the duct tape prom dress was a few years ago wasn’t it? I saw one recently that was new to me: It was made entirely out of some kind of candy wrapper!! Skittles? Can’t remember…will go search…</p>
<p>found it with a quick google! 
It was made of STARBURST wrappers!!</p>

<p>Waaaah, no photos! There’s a TV story on it but it requires a windoze plug-in that I won’t put on my computer, so, oh well. </p>
<p>I want to start a collection of images of bizarre prom dresses: send me links if you have any, thanks!</p>
<p>I would wear a dress like that.</p>
<p>My S is very into duct tape. Makes wallets and “clubbing” bags and even sells them! Has made a backpack, and had been working on a pair of pants but i think gave up for now. Last year (soph) he was planning out a prom ensemble made of tape after finding out about the scholarship contest.But I think making the pants got the better of him.He has much admiration for the kids who actually plan out and wear the outfits.Lots of hard work and creativity.</p>
<p>thats weird…(the duct tape dress that is) =P</p>
<p>My D loves duct tape. All of her school binders are covered with duct tape. She doesn’t use thread to repair torn or worn clothing, she uses duct tape. My Mother’s Day card this year was decorated with…you guessed it duct tape.</p>
<p>This Saturday (KY Derby Day) D. and I had a heated “discussion” on her attire for the big end of year formal school dance. She planned on wearing her lovely, elegant black dress with her red canvas high top Chuck Taylor Converses. I nixed the high tops and insisted on the tasteful matching black shoes. She was put out to say the least and quite vocal about it. She stomped around a bit and then approached her dad and I about her Derby Party attire for later that same evening(the party was later in the evening-we live overseas and the race doesn’t air until 12:00 a.m.). She indicated that she would willingly wear the evil black shoes if she could wear her tweed porkpie hat instead of the ridiculous flowered one I was pushing. She went to the dance wearing the black shoes and to the Derby party with a silk rose stuck in the band of her tweed hat.</p>
