Mike and Ike prom dress?!

June 6th, 2007, 4:47 pm · Post a Comment · posted by Sam Mittelsteadt

When I went to prom, I thought it was a good idea to wear a light pink cummerbund (it matched my date’s dress) with a white tux. I would redo that now.Seeing this, I realize it could have been a lot worse.Kelly Thiel of Minot, N.D., made her prom dress out of Mike and Ike labels — she peeled the layers off and ironed them onto satin. Even her headband is made out of candy. "I will forever be a Mike and Ike fan and I will never forget my senior prom," she wrote. (After eating 200 boxes of Mike and Ikes, I think the resultant lifelong diabetes will help with that.)Years from now, when her poor date is asked about his senior prom picture, he will have to preface it with, "Well, before you see it, you need to know about this crazy girl I took to prom…."The color *is* kind of cute on her, though.
