Toilet paper wedding dress

Behold, the prizewinning toilet-paper wedding dress, conceived of, designed, and modelled by Vicky Heir of Christchurch, NZ.

Expo manager Peta-Marie McLeod said the designers were allowed to use two four-packs of the double length Cottonsofts toilet tissue -- about 16 normal rolls -- to make their dresses.

This is not really new. When Cotonelle changed their name in Canada (is Cashmere now for Canada) they came up with a competition that could have been part of "Project Runway": they organized a contest between fashion students from Toronto and Montreal challenging them to create original garments using their product, Cashmere Toilet Paper.

You can see here some of the finalists as well as the ad for the contest and their tv ad.
