Two US fashion designers have been attracting a lot of hot air over their new collections - made entirely out of balloons.Katie Laibstain, 23, and Steven Jones, 39, create outfits from bikinis to party dresses out of nothing but modelling balloons twisted together.
Their exhibitions have been the talking point of the Kim Tom clown festival fashion show in Shanghai, China, where they are on show
And, even though each dress can be worn only once, they have sold some of their more elaborate designs for as much as £1,000.
Their clothes can consist of up to 300 modelling balloons. Most of the balloons are 60ins long and either one or two inches thick.
Katie, of Richmond, Virginia, said: "Balloon clothes are ultra chic. They are the finest couture available. My dresses contain 300 or more balloons, depending on the design.
"They may not always be easy to get into, but there are so many creative ways to take them off - pop, pop, pop!" (Ananova.com)
