I almost forgot about this episode of this season's Project Runway where the designers were given the challenge of using candy wrappers to create new dresses. On Episode 6, entitled "Eye Candy", the designers went to the Hershey's store in Time Square and they were given five minutes to grab whatever materials they could that they could use to transform into makeshift fabric. Well, the results were pretty interesting...including dresses made out of Hershey, Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, KitKat, York Peppermint Patties, and Twizzler wrappers, pillows, and other raw materials. Talk about shameless promotion on the part of Hershey chocolate ;) but it was all good, here are the designs:

I love project runway! And this episode was one of the best, I'm glad you wrote about it. I love their challenges that involve designing an outfit out of food related items, the ideas they come up with are phenomenal!
This episode was definatly cool. Whats also interesting is that they say that things like this are completely unwearable which should be true. But it just reminds me of all those preworn vintage looking shirts that have things like reeses or york pepermint patties logos on them. So maybe its not all that unwearable afterall.
