In the world of wedding dresses, there's couture, off-the-rack... and toilet paper?

Indeed, there is a toilet paper wedding dress contest sponsored by Cheap Chic Weddings and Charmin, and this year's winners, which were announced Thursday, look like something you could actually purchase in a store.

The winning gown, pictured above, was created by freelance designer Van Tran.

The 1,500 contestants had eight weeks to make their dresses and were permitted to use only toilet paper, tape and/or glue. They were also allowed to sew, if they so pleased.

Judges included event planner Mikie Russo, Charmin representative Vicky Schooler, Edward Meyer, the vice president of exhibits and archives at Ripley's Believe It or Not! and Hank Freid, a representative for The Sanctuary Hotel in Manhattan where the event took place.
