Now every Cindrella out there wishes for the perfect Prince to swoop down from heaven and grab her and live happily ever after. Well, in that case why don’t they do it with this 24000 LED formal dress. Atleast you will have the Prince’s attention for a while even if you are ugly.

The Galaxy Dress as it is named is now in display at the Museum Of Science And Industry in Chicago. The Dress created by Francesca Rosella and Ryan Genz has LEDs of the dimensions 2 by 2 mm and are powered by small iPod batteries.

The LEDs are so wired that the embroidery feels like any other normal embroidery and feels that way too.

The Galaxy dress has four layers of silk chiffon and a pleated silk organza crinoline skirt which if you don’t understand means that its just like any other normal dress.

The batteries can power the dress for 30 mins to 1 hour. And also the places where the LEDs are absent are covered in Swaroski crystals that make the dress as beautiful as ever without the LEDs too.
