It took guests more than three hours to unroll Lin Rong's gown, complete with 9,999 silk red roses.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn. And it cost about seven thousand dollars!

And for only $7000? What are North American women paying for when they get $15000 dresses?

lol... that's... interesting. Sort of reminds me of Isaiah 6:1, "In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord seated on a throne, high and exalted, and the train of his robe filled the temple." :P

Well she probably made it herself, so if you cut labor out of the equation, $7K sounds about right :P

Wait...where's the bride? I see the dress, but I don't see her.:?

Seriously, though, that's just downright excessive. Not to mention depressing. There's people starving in developing countries, and what are we doing? Making mile-long (literally) dresses!

For people asking why: did you read the article? It mentions, like, three times that she wants to set a world record.

Stupid excess of fabric that doesnt even look good, perhaps?

EDIT: Well that is an odd record to break...
