If you have a sweet tooth, you’re sure going to wish you helped create this entire outfit from Starburst wrappers.

Emily Seilhamer took to website Bored Panda to share images of her sartorial creation, after she used over 10,000 sweet wrappers to craft an outfit (complete with accessories).

The cold-shoulder dress required approximately 10,000 individual wrappers while the co-ordinating shoes are made up of 200 wrappers per heel.

The final result is highly Instagrammable and, bizarrely, surprisingly enviable.

With a colour-block finish and almost bouclé-effect, it’s so SS18.

Emily’s love of the multi-coloured sweets first began when she met her husband and he offered her a Starburst. Ever since, her family and friends have helped Emily to collect over 10,000 wrappers.

Ahead of the project, Emily organised the wrappers into colours before ironing them, crafting them into links and creating chains.

One thing is for sure, if she needs help on her next project we sure don’t mind helping to finish the sweets beforehand…
