THIS £10,000 metal dress, a tribute to the steel industry, is wowing fashion lovers after its big reveal at an exhibition in Yorkshire.
But it has never been worn. And the owners believe it never will be – unless an A-list celebrity is looking for a red carpet showstopper...in a size 12. The stunning aluminium outfit, which consists of a shoulder yoke and four linked hoops, is on public show for the first time at Catwalking: Fashion through the lens of Chris Moore, a display of designer clothing and iconic photos, at Cannon Hall Museum, near Barnsley, until November 5, 2023 - click here.
