London Fashion Week hasn't even started yet, but already up-and-coming British designer George Nemsadze's dress made of nori (the seaweed paper used in sushi) is getting media attention. Our thoughts? Love it!
Then again, seaweed, schmeaweed—PETA's been making clothes out of lettuce for years:

The seaweed dress is a thousand times prettier (and more eco-friendly) than the foul-smelling clothes that designers have made out of milk or meat, and with the increasing demand for animal-friendly clothes, vegan clothing lines are set to knock our succotash socks off.
