Dress to impress in condom gown

Devika Bhat
The multi-coloured condom gown

A multi-coloured gown made entirely from condoms has been unveiled at the Dress Up Against Aids Condom Fashion Show in Kuala Lumpur – said by organisers to be the first of its kind hosted in the predominantly Muslim nation.

About 30 young Malaysian designers showcased their creations, constructed using contraceptives, as part of a campaign to increase awareness of HIV/Aids, which remains a serious issue in the country. According to the United Nations, the number of cases of HIV and Aids in Malaysia have risen dramatically since the first incidence was reported two decades ago. By the end of 2004, about 64,000 people were recorded to have been infected with HIV, of whom 9,400 had developed Aids.
