Student Ciara Gan from the Philippines is being likened to a "Disney princess" after photos of her hand-made graduation dress went viral on Twitter.


The dress, which took about a month to design and make, was hand-painted with flowers and sewn with the help of her mother.
Posting photos of the dress to Twitter, Ciara said:

I made and painted my own gown for my graduation ball! I painted over 80 flowers, sewed and stoned my dress with my mama and designed the whole thing myself!

The gown was made to celebrate graduating from high school and going to university, where Ciara will be studying computer sciences.

Ciara said: "I decided to design my own dress because my mom suggested it in the first place. Since it was my last high school event, I wanted to make something special that really reflected who I was – a creator.

"That's why I decided to make something that I've never made before!

"My mom played a huge role in making this all possible!"

The photos of the dress reached more than 80,000 retweets on the website, and Twitter users piled on praise for the design.

Ciara said: "Seeing as I had so much fun making my dress for our ball, I think I would (make a dress again).

"I think every artist sees the flaws in their works but all in all I am happy with what I've made."

"I have ideas already in mind that I want to try out."

Twitter stanned hard for her beautiful creation.




















Now, everyone's dying for a Ciara Gan creation of their own.










We're sure her work will be on runways in no time.

Trump Blasted After Warning Gas Stations To Drop Prices 'Immediately' In Threatening Social Media Rant

President Donald Trump was criticized after telling gas retailers that they need to lower their prices to $2.50 per gallon "immediately" or face "big problems," prompting many critics to suggest he is panicking as discontent toward his administration grows amid fallout over the Iran war and a nationwide affordability crisis.

A recent Gallup poll found that 55 percent of respondents felt their finances were worsening, a level of pessimism exceeding that seen during both the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2008 financial crisis. This comes as the highly unpopular war in Iran continues to rage, sending gas prices surging. Americans have spent an additional $59 billion on fuel since Trump launched the war.

Last Week Tonight host John Oliver mocked Fox News host Jesse Watters for sharing unverified video of alleged "vandals" of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and claiming that liberal media would claim that the people who were seen reaching into the pool "dropped their wedding ring."

The renovation of the Reflecting Pool has become a debacle, marked by recurring algae blooms, workers resorting to pouring hydrogen peroxide into the water to combat the problem, and a political blame game in which some Republicans have attempted to pin responsibility for the mess on Democrats.
