We've seen fast food fashions before, but designer Chris March is doing some thing a little different than the familiar french fry dresses we've come to know. He is making haute couture out of vegetables. With what looks like inspiration from Carmen Miranda, as well as a nudge from Wish-Bone salad dressings, which sponsored the creations, March made hats and dresses out of fresh salad greens. He used lettuce, tomatoes, celery and cabbage, among other produce, to decorate his pieces. A few of the veggies in his creations are artificial, like the green onions, so they will withstand the hot runway lights when they debut in a NY fashion show on June 2.
For good-looking produce, March went to a specialty vegetable market to pick up materials. The only question left to ask is whether any of it is organic.
