wear? That would be cool!

I'm not sure this would be the best material for that, but it could work, however I wouldn't use it for that.

There are some new materials that are lightweight and would lend themselves to making such a piece. A wire form would be necessary to create this...what a fun project! I buy certain sculpting materials for my grandsons that would work for your project.

There is a product called Forming Foam - it's inexpensive and, I think, would be ideal for such a project.
