Vegetable couture a hit at Food Show Wellington
Another successful Food Show was held in Wellington over the weekend with thousands of foodies heading to the annual culinary extravaganza.
Over 200 exhibitors set up at the Westpac Stadium offering mouth-watering food and drink from around the country and overseas.
Visitors also enjoyed live cooking demonstrations by some of New Zealand’s favourite chefs.
Because it was the 10-year anniversary of the show in the capital we wanted to do something a little different - and what could be better than a Food Dress!
It was made by the incredibly talented Wellington stylist Samantha Hannah.
She stitched and pinned together nine leeks, three big bags of silverbeet, one red cabbage and two oranges into a dress that can only be described as a visual symphony!
Every detail was taken care of with red and green grapes strung together for the necklace, and a red cabbage leaf and leek was fashioned into a funky fascinator.
The dress was one of the star attractions at the show where it was on display to the delight of visitors.
Take a look at how it was made…
