Brand Flakes for Breakfast
Thursday, November 29, 2007

forget how much it costs. let's jump in the mud.



Just discovered the most fun trend ever. Trashing your wedding dress after the big day. Think about it - why spend 6 gatrillion dollars on a dress, and then just let it hang in the closet for 50 years?

Go somewhere fun, get dirty, and photograph the event for everyone to see. Awesome. There's a host of photographers who specialize in Trash the Dress events - and there are even group trash the dress sessions, in fun locations like ghost towns. Allegedly, most dresses never get trashed beyond what a good dry cleaning couldn't take care of. (But who cares, anyway?)

This would make a fun promo event for any brand related to bridal services.

I heard about that and it irks me because walking on a street or standing in water and looking serene isn't really trashing the dress. I love it when they truly do trash it with like mud and stuff.

Ya know, I still have my dress.....>: )
