Food as fashion

Artichoke Hearts-
This gown was designed by Daniel Feld and Wesley Nault (both Project Runway alums) and took over 6 hours to complete. Sabarese says "the model stood the entire time while they attached each individual leaf."

Lady Gaga's meat dress may have gotten loads of attention, but she wasn't the first one to come up with the idea. Last year photographer Ted Sabarese shot a series of images called "Hunger Pains" which showcased models wearing garments made of the foods they craved the most. Models and designers came together for 16 hours to cook and create one-of-a-kind works of wearable, edible art. With ingredients like fresh waffles and pasta on set we wonder if people were able to resist sneaking bites of the tasty outfits.

Check out the final images from Sabarese's portfolio and view a behind-the-scenes video of the shoot on his blog. [Ted Sabarese][Trendhunter]
