I have the same suit…I just couldn’t pull it off.
LOL I see what you did there.
haha that took me ages to get
i thought it was terrible just by looking at the obnoxious patterns of the outfits. then i realized they were made out of tarp. that made it so much less comfortable for me
Duct tape outfits fully rock. The over kill on the red white and blue makes me want to barf. These ppl went out in public like this?!
What the heck people!
Apollo Creed got married?
lolz
afs . eu amo meu paĆs Brasil !
love the Obama on his jacket. I missed that the first time. When I keep looking at it i find a new detail I didn’t see before. They should’ve followed him during the election.
This is sooo fun! There are ducktape super girl costumes at my site too.
I am constantly astounded how creative people can get with tape! hehehe

Hearts, stars, stripes….yikes. Now that’s my kind of dude that wears hearts on his sneakers. Obama…I missed that. I think he’s made out of wax.
Pretty amazing! I hope they won something for all the time and effort. I don’t think the boy is made of wax I just think he’s hot as sh!t with all that plastic on, at least she gets to have her legs and arms out. He has to be sweating big ones…
Aside from the color scheme this could have been one of the sweetest prom pictures ever taken. Great idea but nationalism+duct tape formal wear= awkward for sure.
Was it a theme prom?
Aw, come on … this is creative. And they’re obviously very young, so they’re even more entitled to go over the top, esp. since the outfits are in honor of Obama. (See the “OBAMA” spelled out on the blue field on the boy’s jacket? It’s kind of hard to tell what it says because the “B” has no loops, the first “A” is the Capitol building, and the second “A” is on a fold, so it’s smaller.) They don’t even look awkward, either; they seem pretty relaxed. If they were wearing regular clothes, you’d see that this pic is among the least awkward of high school couple photos.
Well see these people are from my school and our art club participates in this competition called Stuck At Prom (stuckatprom.com) where we make prom outfits made from duct tape…these were their outfits for next year. People all over the country compete in this competition for a chance at $3k for use towards college.
What is most important about this picture is that it is not a skeleton from the “history closet”. This is a recent photo. Wow.
“It’s stars, stripes, and hearts forever baby!”
Yea this one is cool, I mean they KNOW its funny. And besides, anyone who can make halfway decent fun stuff like that with duct tape! Cmon! Thats not awkward! Thats just awesome!
Damn, that’s impressive! And they do look adorable.
OH MY GOD ! this is only possible in ur country ! unbelieveable !!
She took her student council presidential campaign to a new level.
This is some sort of sick joke right??
Please tell me it is. They have dressed up like this as part of some elaborate bet.
Please. PLEASE!!!!!!
their publicity photo for their American Gladiators application
apollo creed’s parents
that looks noisy
My duct tape suit was so much cooler.
he was always such a strange kid…..
Looks like they got their outfits from the “Love American Style” collection. Yeah, I just dated myself.
Looks like they ran into July 4th
America…DUCT yeah!!
If people are going to laugh at your prom photo, at least make the laughs intentional. Go Duct Tape Prom!
and now they’ll always have something to wear on the Fourth of July
I’ve seen far worse prom outfits — at least they’re patriotic!
that’s bloody brilliant – you go you good things
Funny, but seriously creative! Kudos to them. (BTW the whole duct tape prom fad came about because you can get a scholarship if you create the best outfits and send them in.)
The photos. I meant that if you send in the photos, you have a chance at winning.
Classy.
Does anyone else think that the guy kinda looks like wayne brady? if it is, this picture would explain his strange sense of humor. he saw the picture and realized if he didnt have people laughing with him, they would be laughing at him…LMAO
I had a friend who made her prom dress out of pink duck tape in high school!
If this is a duct tape contest entry it shows great talent and a great sense of humor.If not I’ll
quote Will Smith DAMN , JUST DAMN!
So THATS where my table cloth went!
I guess you use plain gray duct tape when you’re going for a more formal look.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA this dude got punked!
Super Patriotic Duct Tape Task Force! Wow I LOVE their comic books! Can I get their autograph?
Haha. It says “Obama” on his jacket.
Wazzup wit’at bizzaro backdrop???? Now that’s a touch clash!
This is part of a scholarship put on by Duct Tape. It’s called Stuck at Prom.
First off they didn’t tape the outfits TO their bodies. The tape is folded together to make the outfits. I think it took great skill to make any outfit our of duct tape. Kudos to them. If it was for a school project I hope they got an A. I just wish we new the story behind why the outfits were made.
there is a scholarship for people who make their prom outfits out of duct tape.
for 2000 dollars per year, not bad
i love this—isn’t there some kind of duct tape prom outfit contest thingy? amazing—send a congrats to those two for sure!
HAHAHA I never thought that you could use duct tape like that… hHAHAHAHA
