These incredible masterpieces are in fact also edible. The work of Korean artist Sung Yeonju forms part of her on-going series 'Wearable Foods' in which she makes garments out of foods and photographs them. The series forces viewers to defy the traditional functionalities of each item by reinterpreting them into wearable works or art.

We are utterly impressed - and keen to don one of these masterpieces ourselves - Lady Gaga style.
