A high school senior in Missouri didn’t have to worry about any other girls wearing the same dress to prom. That’s because Aimee Kick decided to make her dress from coffee filters. According to the Francis Howell School District’s website, Aimee was inspired by her love for coffee and her desire to do something creative. After realizing that vegetables or tea bags would prevent her from dancing, the Francis Howell North High School student settled on coffee filters. The dress took a month to make, with Aimee spending as much as six hours a day working on the outfit. Aimee explains, quote, “I am very inspired to use different materials, so it was more of a stimulating challenge than a difficulty.”
