Iowa teen Elizabeth Rasmuson and her boyfriend Jordan Weaver are getting ready for Garner's prom next weekend.

They already have one main part down...the outfits.

Elizabeth said, "I heard about somebody making a dress out of duct tape or something one time so I just was like what's something cool and I've always liked the colors of the "Five" gum."

That's right...she's going to prom in her very own hand-made dress that's made out of gum wrappers.

The idea started after making a jacket of wrappers last year and after that she decided to be unique with her dress for prom as well.

Elizabeth said, "we started collecting like the specific colors like at the very beginning of the year in August."

And of course they wanted to have the matching vest. So, Weaver started working on his piece of the outfits.

If you're wondering how many of these gum wrappers it takes for the dress, Elizabeth stopped counting after 200.
