There was outrage when Lady Gaga turned up to the MTV Music Video Awards ceremony wearing an outfit made of meat, but it seems she's started something of a trend.
In fact Gaga has been trumped by London College of Fashion designer Anna Chong, who has incorporated the idea of provenance into her design.
The dress is made entirely of Parma Ham which is a PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) product protected by European Union law which ensures that it can only be produced in the designated area near Parma and using specified artisan methods.
The dress took two weeks to make and is the star piece of Chong's new collection of miniature dresses recreating Gaga's most popular looks.
A press release from the Consorzio del Prosciutto di Parma suggests the dress highlights the creativity and versatility of Parma Ham.
Hmmm...I think I'll stick to eating it.
