MADERA COUNTY, Calif. (KMPH) -
The duct tape prom dates put four months of fashion design on display Saturday night. Kinsey Carlson and her boyfriend Darren Brannan were the talk of Liberty High School's prom at Wolf Lakes.
The junior from Madera Ranchos has been working on her dress and accessories not to mention Darren's tux since January. The couple is competing in Duck Brand duct tape's national contest.
Each contestant has to wear an outfit made of duct tape to the prom. Kinsey Carlson was happy with her finished product. "A lot of stares, a lot of not so much laughs but overall amazement. A lot of people are confused. They really don't understand that it's duct tape."
Darren Brannan wore his tux proudly. "It came out wonderful. Everything is really good. There's a little bit touch and go. It was a very late night last night."
The winning couple in the national contest splits a $10,000 college scholarship.
