Designer Zac Posen has created an evening gown completely covered in 24-karat gold paillettes.
Zac Posen’s $1.5 million dress was made to look like melting ice cream and was created in honor of Magnum’s new Gold ice cream bar.
The 32-year-old designer said: “Creating my first-ever 24-karat gold dress was a truly priceless experience.
“I’m naturally drawn to luxury and love to push my creativity, so the design process of creating a couture dress made of gold was thrilling.”

Zac Posen added: “I pulled inspiration from Magnum Gold?! for the dress design… the train reminds me of melting ice cream. The dress is so decadent.”
The gold dress will make its debut on April 18th in a short film for Magnum Gold?! starring Joe Manganiello.
Premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival, the movie is called As Good As Gold.
This isn’t the first time Magnum has collaborated with the fashion industry, however.
Karl Lagerfeld and Rachel Bilson joined forces in 2011 for a three-part short film series, which featured Chanel model Baptiste Giabiconi directing Rachel Bilson, who demanded a Magnum to continue, at a fashion shoot.
Magnum Gold?! ice cream bar is made of vanilla bean with swirls of sea salt caramel and a “golden” milk chocolate coating.

Jade Jagger stepped out in an unflattering tulip style dress as she attended the unveiling of Range Rover Sport in New York on Tuesday, just weeks after she made the same faux pas in a different version of the same style dress.
Despite raising eyebrows in a silver version of the dress during Paris Fashion Week earlier in the month, Jade Jagger, 41, has clearly decided it’s a good look for her.
Swamping her frame, Mick Jagger’s daughter slipped into the gown which was this time gold, looking like she had wrapped herself in far too much fabric.
In an attempt to rescue her shape, Jade Jagger wore a brown belt around her waist however it just wasn’t enough to save the billowing gown from being too much.
She also wore a gold statement necklace and a number of gold rings.

To finish off her look Jade Jagger wore the same shimmery silver shoes she had on when she dressed in the same gown in silver.
It seems Jade Jagger may be trying to drum up a bit of attention around herself as she is reportedly gearing up to make a jewellery comeback, seven years after being dropped as creative director for jewellers Garrard.
Jade Jagger is to set to launch a jewellery collection at department store Fortnum & Mason with another ex-Garrard employee, Stephen Webster, who was at Buckingham Palace recently to collect his MBE.
The new Range Rover Sport – the sportier “baby brother” of the bigger Range Rover – goes on sale in September priced from $83,358. It will ultimately be introduced in 169 markets worldwide.
