This Dress Looks Like A Million Bucks!

That's because it's made out of printed money. Just how much? £1 million or roughly $1.6 million.

After her parents won a £2.4 million jackpot, 20 year old design student Hannah Cooper was inspired to make a dress after so many people asked her about it.

So she asked the Bank of England for permission to print £20 notes on the silk material.

Whatever happened to being humble?

She explains her expen$ive creation saying:

"I decided it would be fun to make a dress out of money. I had to get their permission first because it is illegal to copy bank notes. But they were fine about it - although I did have to scale them down to size. I'm hoping the dress will be seen in fashion shows before going on permanent display somewhere."

We're sure someone materialistic enough will bite.
