12th Annual Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest Winners

After nearly a month of anticipation, it’s time to announce the winners of the 12th annual Cheap Chic Weddings Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest! Last week the 10 finalists showcased their work at the contest’s finale event held at Haven Rooftop at The Sanctuary Hotel. More than 1,500 dresses were entered this year and designers were required to construct their wedding dresses only out of Charmin toilet paper, tape, glue and/or needle and thread.

12th Annual Charmin Toilet Paper Wedding Dress Contest Finalists

This marks the sixth year Charmin has partnered with Cheap Chic Weddings by providing coupons to help cover the cost of purchasing Charmin toilet paper used in creating each dress. Designers used between nine and 70 rolls of Charmin Basic, Charmin Ultra Soft and Charmin Ultra Strong. The softness combined with the strength of Charmin makes it the perfect material for designers to use to create their dresses and models to wear on the runway.

The winning dress by Van Tran of Brooklyn, New York – $10,000 Grand Prize

Isn’t the winning dress absolutely stunning? Van Tran used hot glue, glitter glue, duct tape, thread
and 10 mega rolls of Charmin Ultra Strong to complete the mermaid style dress. It’s hard to believe that it was made entirely of toilet paper. It’s gorgeous and could definitely pass as a “real” wedding dress!
