Pronovias? Oscar de La Renta? Nope...it's Andrex!

toilet-paper-wedding-dress.jpgThis lovely bridal gown is absolutely charming. Or should that be Charmin? Far from being a priceless designer number, the dress just won this year's Cheap Chic wedding contest and is made entirely from toilet paper, tape and glue.

Its maker, Ann Kagawa Lee of Honolulu, Hawaii, took inspiration from the film "Gone With the Wind" and Japanese Origami. Judges likened it to an Oscar de la Renta gown, and awarded her a $1000.00 prize for her efforts. Visit the competition site to see the runners up, and some amazing close-up images of Ann's dress and hat! [Via Bridalwave]
