Lady Gaga's meat dress has nothing on this masterpiece.

British designer and beautician Sarah Louise Bryan, who previously stunned the Internet with a dress made entirely of Skittles, has truly outdone herself with her latest creation: a dress comprised of human "head and body" hair.

We imagine it is fairly itchy.

To obtain material for the dress, Bryan collected hair donations by mail after requesting them on social media. Her goal? To "knock Lady Gaga's designer off her throne and be the ultimate queen bee in wearable art," Bryan told Mashable.

Bryan worked for six months designing and making the gown. She wore a face mask while she crafted to prevent small hairs from flying into her eyes, nose and mouth. Sensible.

The whole masterpiece is a bit less appetizing than the Skittles dress, but the result — a cohesive potpourri of human follicle fruit — is arguably even more incredible. Like, how does it all stick together? Help.

And according to Bryan, even more, uh, unorthodox fashion is in the works. "Crazy gross ideas," she said.

We are both excited and afraid.
