Edible Wedding Dress

Hi,

This is so cool. This is a wedding cake that is also a dress. Ooh, eating your dress. I thought it was interesting, so I decided to share. Until next time.

Chocolate Show...

So, I was watching Unwrapped on Food Network and the episode was about chocolate. There is this New York Annual Chocolate Show that happens in November. They were featuring I think the 8th Annual Chocolate Show, and then I saw that the chocolate show has a chocolate fashion show too. And I saw this AMAZING blue dress..made COMPLETELY by chocolate. So they had the designer's name, but as I was racing to write it down, I forgot because I kept saying it over and over again, so I spent today looking for who designed it, I only had his first name that I remembered. I finally found it!

Oh, here's the Chocolateshow website if you want to view it! ;)

The dress is a collaboration by Robert J. Twardzik and Austin Scarlett of Project Runway Season 1. I am in awe! I can NOT believe that it is made ALL from chocolate!

Designer Spotlight: Reem Acra

I'm in a good mood, so I'm doing the Designer Spotlight today. I've decided that I'll do the Designer Spotlight every month. I have a lot of favorties, so it'll take a while! ;)

August's "Designer Spotlight" is on Reem Acra. She is one of my favorite designers.

Reem Acra was born in Lebanon. She studied in New York and Paris. Reem Acra started in New York as an embroidery artist. She started a bridal gown company in 1995 and has been successful ever since. She is recognized for her intricate use of embroidery. She is known for her attention to detail, combinations of unique fabric pieces, and her embroidery.

"Reem Acra’s designs epitomize global glamour by offering women her innate fashion sense, European style and understanding of what looks and feels beautiful. Interlaced with her sense of luxury, her regal designs are developed with a modern aesthetic. The ready-to-wear and bridal collections evoke an ethereal quality, which appeals to a discerning clientele including personalities, royalty, and style setting women from all corners of the world."
