I never read the rules but WHY would anyone do this? You would never know from the photos that they were made from tape. MaryW

OH OH OH!!!! If you want to vote, and don't mind a push, 3487 could use it. He is a good friend's son and they are really neat kids! He'd do it for scholarship money, but he is very creative...if you knew the kid, you'd know this is his cup of tea! He was at one of the prom's my dd attended this year.

We can't vote on those. They will be judged and the winners will be announced June 28th midnight. They have a panel of judges to do the judging.
I'm regressing back into my youth, I just have to figure out how I'm going to convience my body to come along with me.

Oh, really? The local paper said that we could but I went back to vote and didn't find anything either. Well, it will be a very big decision! The outfits are wonderful and so creative! I wonder what their stock does each year at prom time.

Those outfits are amazing. When I clicked the link yesterday you could still vote. Guess the voting's closed!

Ilive in NE OHIO, where one of the largest manufacturers of duct tape is located... In the town of Avon, Ohio, they have an annual duct tape festival... I think it was two weekends ago... they build floats from duct tape, make clothing from duct tape... etc, etc, etc,.... it's really pretty neat to see what people come up with... and yes, they offer some pretty nice scholarships to kids who make their prom outfits from duct tape... just my two cents... MO life is too short, not to explore

My husband always says "There is nothing brute strength, ignorance and duct tape can't fix." It's his motto. Dorothy |

These are totally amazing. I had never heard of anything like this so I just got everyone from work to come and take a look at the website. Some of them are so creative, it was really neat to see. Thanks!
