A festive partygoer owes her life to the skintight £35 bodycon dress she squeezed into before going out, after it stopped her bones piercing her organs in a horrific car accident.
Zoe Turners dress acted like a corset and stopped bones popping out and causing fatal internal injuries after her taxi was hit by a cement mixer.
Doctors told the 21-year-old that the dress almost certainly saved her life, after Ms Turner and three friends were left badly hurt in the crash.
She said: I couldnt believe my dress saved my life. Thats the best £35 Ive ever spent.
Although I didnt come off lightly, the end result could have been a lot worse.
The pain and restriction my dress was causing was unbearable I am lucky to be alive.

We went to a party last night and my husband noted that many of the girls seemed to be wearing their little sister’s dresses, haha.
