a dress made of condoms - isn't it gorgeous? ashamed
Condom Dress

and for those of you planning on walking down the isle soon:

Wedding Gown Made of 12,500 Condoms

condom_wedding_gown.jpgLast Friday, December 1 was the 19th World AIDS Day, and an enterprising seamstress in New York decided to commemorate the big day with a very special wedding gown. Consisting entirely of 12,500 individually colored and stitched-together condoms, the result is quite fetching, the perfect complement to the chandelier made from penis pumps.

So with the average sex frequency of married couples holding right at 98 times per year according to a 2001 Durex Survey, this supply of condoms ought to keep the average married couple child-free for about 127.5 years.

There was no word about whether the condoms had been used or not before being sewn up into this dress, but with all that stitching involved, their use after the wedding ceremony was not recommended. Charlie White

I actually saw the second dress at the UN when I was visiting NYC in January. (It looks like the picture was taken there.) You'd be surprised at how "cool" it actually looked. It was different. It was art. It made a statement. I couldn't help but think about how much work and creativity it took to make it. I was impressed.

I could have done without this line:

There was no word about whether the condoms had been used or not

Let's hope the answer was not!
