Choc! Horror! Bizarre Designs at Salon du Chocolat's Fashion Show

But chocolate and fashion? Ehhhh...not so much.
Still, we'll give the fine folks at Salon du Chocolat points for creativity, as demonstrated by the, um, unusual (cough, fugly) chocolate-embellished outfits seen on the runway at last night's "Chocolate Trends Fashion Show" in celebration of the international chocolate exhibition's 15th anniversary.
(Side note: Is this why French women don't get fat? By wearing, not eating, the chocolate? Le screw that!)
From a red Spanish flamenco frock boasting chocolate panels to a heart-shaped frock to a bizarre Hiawatha-meets-Hershey's choc-studded headdress, the designs were as eyebrow-raising as they were edible.
According to the Salon du Chocolat website, the fashion show -- now in its 11th year as part of the yummy festivities -- was inspired by a "fairytale opera" featuring French celebrities donning creations made by avant-garde designers collaborating with chocolate makers such as Nestle and Michel Cluizel. Participating designers included Agatha Ruiz de la Prada, Jean Doucet, and Virginie Stucki.
Funds from the show benefit children's charities, according to Salon du Chocolat, which says, "the aim is to amass several tons of chocolate for sick and underprivileged children."
Um...okay. Guess couture gowns studded with vital medicine bottles didn't have the same glamour quotient.
Either way, we don't think we'll be wearing these wacky frocks. Eating them, however, is another matter.
