From trash to treasure, a beautful dress made from newspaper!

Alright, alright, I know when you hear dress you automatically assume it will be on a girl. That what I assumed too when I signed up for this contest. I was apparently wrong. This dress was constructed for a contest for relay for life. The rules: it could only be made for newspaper and tape, it had to be made in two hours, and (to my surprise and distaste) if you're making a girl outfit, it has to go on a boy and a boy's goes on a girl... the reasoning "for fun!" So please, do what I did and image the model is a very ugly girl. Now with explanations out of the way, this is the dress I made, and I am very please with it. Some little things that I would have like to change, but when you're in a time crunch, what can you do? Questions, comments, complaints, or whatever I welcome, so please don't hold back! PS. The really pale freak in the last two pictures is me, please ignore.
