Suraya Mohd Zairin is a 16-year-old student from Kuala Lumpur who created a stunning dress out of 4,000 tea bags over the course of three months. Zairin said that her knee-length gown's design channels flowers and the significance of nature.
Zairin presented her creation at the Green Awards 2011 and took home the top prize. To see a significantly more controversial dress, check out this couture gown made of 3,000 cow and yak teats.
