Versa-cheese: The collection of dresses made of melted cheddar

A group of students have stunned the fashion world by creating a range of dresses - made entirely out of cheese.
Five incredible creations have gone on display after young designers spent 1,000 hours and one tonne of cheese putting them together.
The cheese couture catwalk collection includes a ball gown encrusted with melted cheddar.

Designed by fashion and textile students at Bath Spa University, the outfits also come with 'Jimmy Cheese' shoes - also made from the strong-smelling dairy product.
They were heat moulded and sculpted into frocks and dresses using Pilgrims Choice Vintage, Extra Mature and Red Leicester cheeses.
Hannah Jenkins, from cheese company Pilgrims Choice which provided cheese for the dresses, claimed the inspiration from the collection had come from popstar Lady Gaga.

She said: 'Food has become a source of fashion inspiration - the world went Gaga for that famous meat ensemble.
'So we thought it was time to introduce cheese to the world of couture, and this amazing project with the Bath Spa University students has ensued.

'Their creativity and ingenuity has stunned us, and we thought we knew all there was to know about cheese.
'Who would have known that cheese could look so chic?'
All the cheese frocks will be on display at the Royal Bath and West Show, at Shepton Mallet, Somerset, from tomorrow until Saturday.

That's gotta hurt: Amy Childs shows off painful blisters on her lips after too much sun in 'Marbs'

She's a dab hand at the spray tan and even has her own shade of orange named 'the Amy Childs'.
But it appears despite all her fake tanning knowledge, The Only Way Is Essex star has forgotten how to stay safe in the sun.
The reality star, 20, was sporting sunburnt lips as she enjoyed her last day in Marbella yesterday.

The beautician looked fairly rundown and tired after a week of hard-partying all day and night in the Spanish resort.
Due to her blistered mouth, Childs left off her signature lipgloss and lipliner as she headed to one of Marbella's numerous beach clubs.
And it was clear she wasn't feeling great when she caught an early flight home to Essex this morning, after a Twitter followers who met her at the airport told her 'hope you get better soon babe'.
Following a week of partying and tanning with her female pals and co-stars, it appeared that Childs was ready to go home yesterday.
She tweeted she was looking forward to seeing her broker boyfriend Joe Hurlock.
