Someone sent these to me so I thought I would share them. At least they have something on under the balloons.

The actual techniques used for most of the dresses are not "that" difficult (I'm not down playing the difficultly) BUT the biggest challenges are threefold:
1) most of these balloons appear to be either metallics or pearls, which are notoriosly difficult to work with to create consistentency.
2) The precision of the twists and the bubbles is amazing. These bubbles are exactly the same size over and over again.
3) Thre creativity needed to imagine the outcomes ahead of time. Balloon clothing is relatively new and these are amazing creations.

My cousin sent me that in an email. I'm fairly new to twisting. It amazes me what people can do with balloons!!
