The $1.5m gold gown and other pricey clothes

What would you do with $1.5 million? Buy a new house or two? Several sports cars? A lavish around-the-world trip? Or you could blow it all on this new solid gold dress.

Designer Zac Posen created this one-of-a-kind gown in honour of Magnum’s new Gold ice cream bar. It is completely covered in 24-karat gold discs and weighs more than any model who would be able to fit into it.

As impractical as it is, this dress is far from the most ridiculous lavish fashion item. Here are some of the most ludicrously expensive clothes and accessories from the past decade.
