MELBOURNE - A new designer outfit made of chocolate is set to be unveiled at an Easter fashion show in southeast Queensland.
According to the Gold Coast Bulletin, haute couture designer Richard de Chazal made the gown in three using 44 pounds (20kg) of chocolate, reports the Courier Mail.
The costume was created through a detailed process of applying dabs of chocolate to the bodice. Thereafter, the chocolate was smoothed out with a spatula and heat gun.
The bodice was lined with swimming pool sealant and resin so that the chocolate did not seep through the fabric.
De Chazal said: “The weekend was spent with many blisters and burns with the help of a chef friend as we tried to concoct the perfect chocolate for a garment.” (ANI)
