Organic Fashion that Looks Good Enough to Eat

by Tiffany in Eco Fashion, Organic Bites

Organic Veggie Dress

The contest, Fashion Entrée was hosted by Capers Community Market in vancouver. The mandatory ingredient was natural, sustainable materials. The goal was to create a wearable piece of clothing inspired by or incorporating organic foods.

Corrina Suveges took first place with her Salad Dress. Reminiscent of a celery stalk, this body-hugging evening gown is made of organic-cotton sateen. The bikinilike bust emulates two leaves of radicchio, and the mermaid hemline has layers of wild-greens–shaped panels made from hand-felted, hand-dyed Merino wool and organic-cotton batting.

This dress is absolutely gorgeous!

    Wow! – Tiffany – I’m reading your posts here for the first time — I’m so excited – Capers in Vancouver you mention here is just 4 blocks from my new home.
    Aren’t I fortunate – I’m shopping there all the time – buying all my organic produce.
    I only really moved in in early August, so I must have missed this – but I think it is great that you posted this here!

    Thanks Diana! If you know of any other “green” events or places in Canada I would love to hear about them!
