The World’s Most Expensive Dress Is Also The World’s Ugliest

How much does your most expensive dress cost? How much would you be willing to spend on a gown? Everyone’s spending habits are different, but I can’t seem to think of anyone who would purchase this particular dress.

British designer Debbie Wingham has created the world’s most expensive dress. A red-diamond encrusted gown valued at a cool $17.7 million. That’s right, million.

The dress is called the Abaya and, in my very sincere opinion, it could be the ugliest dress I’ve ever seen. The designer was inspired by a trip to Dubai last fall. No offense to Dubai, but I just can’t imagine anyone wearing this gown anywhere, especially with this price tag.

The dress boasts 3,000 stones, including two 50-carat black diamonds, 50 two-carat white diamonds, 1,899 black and white pointer diamonds and 1,000 pointer rubies. Each of the stones are set in 14-carat gold.

What do you think of this… masterpiece?
