It looks like her orange one-piece is coming apart at the seams. At least she got a few good shots in before it unraveled…

Why You Should Be Surprised

“So what?” you may be thinking. “I mean, certainly she’s cute and she looks good in that one-piece. It really accentuates her form and looks light and stretchy…w..wait a second…those are rubber bands!!” Yes, that’s right. And Miss Sakamoto is jumping for joy that you figured it out!

She posted the above video saying, “As a matter of fact, rubber band clothes make you go boing boing when you jump up and down.”

Miss Sakamoto amazed everyone with her original work of art, leaving Twitter users wondering:

  • “That’s too cool! I wonder how many rubber bands it took just to make one dress…”
  • “The rubber must smell bad right?”
  • “It looks heavy. I’m curious how much it weighs.”
  • “I can’t say anything, but ‘Wow!’”

Sakamoto-san said the dress required 10 kilograms of rubber bands!
