Meghan Young — March 14, 2014 — Unique
At first a person might think that the Paint Dress by Olivia Mears, a student at Western Carolina University, simply sports a splattered pattern of paint. In reality, it is made out of paint. Considering that it is designed by the same woman who created the Taco Bell Wrapper Dress, this should come as no surprise.
Made out of an acrylic and latex paint mix, the artist writes, "An experiment in using more unconventional materials in costuming; I was asked to paint a dress, so I did."
