Most parents tell their kids not to play with their food, but for oil painter Alya Chaglar and her 3-year-old daughter, Stefani, playing with food is part of their daily fun.

Using the power of perspective, Chaglar holds pieces of fruit, vegetables, and flowers at just the right distance and positioning so that they appear to cover young Stefani as glamorous dresses and skirts. The resulting photos are cheeky, artistic, and adorable all at once.

The mommy-daughter duo's edible antics have made Stefani an Instagram sensation, with over 22 thousand followers already anticipating each new outfit she sports. Check out some of her most fabulous fashions below, and don't forget to vote for your favourite!

The new color on the runway, is purple! And this dress evokes such passionate restraint, with the green middle section and unexpected but lovely white frou frou hem!

Amazing! A whimsical selection of a dress, like a small bouquet your small daughter would pick for you, and lovingly arranged in a dress of fantasy!

Your daughter, is wonderful, whimsical, and her freedom of expressions, are so beautiful! You, are creative and refreshing! I wouldn't be surprised to see top designers, copying your idea, and making fabrics and dresses from your ideas. How inspiring you both are!!
