Design Description
The ‘Got Milk?’ design consists of a mermaid style dress which begins as a tight-fitting silhouette explodes into a flamboyant train as it reaches the floor. Cow print boots and a massive swooping sun hat accompany this design. The look is completed with cow-themed makeup, bright yellow cow tag earrings, and a blue cowbell necklace. The blue and cow print theme is unbroken throughout the look!
Materials Used: This bright and beautiful design was created using waste created by the consumption of milk. Wrapping of over 1,000 milk cartons was cut into string and crocheted to create the dress and sleeves, and 60 cardboard cartons were used to create the hat and train. Accent was added to the shoes with milk cartons lids, and a blue boa for the hat was made from blue plastic bottles. Even the frame of the dress was bent into shape using metal coat hangers!
