Dress made from human hair: would you wear it?
Filed under: Runway Trends, Style in the News, Clothing, Dresses, Hair Care
We recently brought you news that Australian researchers made a dress from wine. That's pretty weird, but wasn't exactly the most attractive garment I've ever seen.
This dress, however, is pretty good looking, and is made entirely from human hair.
Attendees at the fashion show where it was unveiled were a little stunned when it came prancing down the runway, modeled by Simona Gotovac. That's not exactly surprising -- as, at first, it looks like that might actually be the model's hair dangling down by the ground. Plus, judging by the picture, it must have moved differently than any dress made from traditional materials.
So, are you going to start seeing human hair dresses at your local fashion boutique? Probably not. Designers needed 165ft of blond hair to create the dress, and I can't imagine that's easy to come by.
But even if you could buy the dress, the question is: would you wear it?

That's kind of disturbing, but kind of amazing at the same time. It looks good...or maybe that model just looks really good, haha. Hey if anyone reading here is into the hair on your head...you should check out this show on Bravo called Shear Genius. Has anyone heard of it or seen it? It’s sort of like Project Runway, but it’s about hairstyling. It's on Bravo on Wednesdays nights @ 10PM. They also have a sweepstakes right now to win a trip for two to NYC to get a complete makeover and $500 shopping spree. Just enter at http://condenast.eprize.net/alluresheargenius/?affiliate_id=1d I work with the company so just wanted to give you the inside scoop! Good luck! And I'd like to see the dress made of wine, whatever that is??? Weird...
