Here are some pics of the vest I made of duct tape, and the pics I finally got from my aunt of my Halloween costume I wore last year. Which I think I said I would post earlier, but never got around to it. As you can see, throughout the school day it got kind of wrinkled. Since most people forgot about it, they will have spirit week and duct tape day over again next week due to three days canceled. I will buy more colored duct tape to do my pants as well for next Friday. My "pimp suit:"

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice pimp suit there, Devin! Stylin'! The duct tape vest is great, too. Perhaps you've just come up with the latest fad in fashion!

It held up great! It did get a bit wrinkled, but I'm gonna "tweak" it so that won't happen as bad again. When I sat down it kind of went up a bit, but I'll fix that this weekend by putting slits on the sides. I also plan on covering a pair of pants in colored duct tape.
The pimp suit I wore to school one day as a dare, nobody thought I would do it. I had a great time! It was also a halloween costume.

I love the handkerchief in the pocket! How great is that?
Very nicely done. I think it looks awesome. I can hardly wait to see the pants. I hear that duct tape clothing is super hot since it doesn't breathe. You are brave!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE that purple hat! That totally makes the outfit. How fun. In that pic with the cane you have total attitude. very nice

Well thank you! I really appreciate all the compliments! Actually, the handkercheif is red duct tape. And yes, it was very hot. I started to cool off after awhile, though. I'm hoping to do the pants, but first I will work on making my vest fit a bit better when I sit down, and also adding some color to it. The hat I actually bought at Walmart, and everything else I had. I just borrowed the suit from my dad! At www.ducktapeclub.com they have a competition where you can make your prom dress out of duct tape and if you win you get a 3,000 dollar scholarship! Some of them are just amazing! I would try, but I am not the dress-type at all. I hate dresses in fact, I will probably just wear a nice pant-suit. Or make my own of duct tape!
