Alright, here’s something totally out-of-the box – in fact, we wouldn't be off-track if say ‘out of this world’. While catching a glimpse of gorgeous evening dresses embellished with clarion wires or rusty metallic elements has already struck us with awe, we just wonder ‘how to react over this one’. Well to cut the frills and shine bright, the celebrated actress Christina Ricci literally stopped the clock just a while ago when she showed up at the MTV Movie Awards, 2012 – in the first-ever Timex Watch Dress. Like really?

Well, designed exclusively by the renowned designer Christian Siriano, the dress not only grabs eyeballs for endowing a huge number of watches, but also for rendering a new and fresh interpretation on how to sport the fashionable iconic brand. Although the apparel gobbled down did not gobble down a long time to get prepped up, the watch-studded costume worn by Christina Ricci hogged the limelight on the red carpet for the right reasons.

However if we go by what Siriano has to say, the iconic brand-inspired Timex Watch Dress also picks up some cues from the designer’s wide range of fashionable and stylish collections. Since Ricci’s style statement revolves more around elegance and finesse, Christian had to (thus) pay little extra attention and detailing whilst hemming the symmetrical, unique concept.

The interesting fact surfaces when we let cat out of the bag and tell you that this first-ever Timex Watch actually features more than 1,000 watches – while, one timepiece could have been enough to strike the right ticks. Nevertheless, the stylish dress stands thoroughly distinguished for incorporating numerous watch gears and links, hundreds of Swarovski crystals, and antique buttons hand-picked by Ricci.

The jewel-toned dress, in fact, has also got a gold-toned zipper and timeless deep plunging V-neckline to show off. The back design, on the other hand, has been treated with more Timex watches encrusted with stunning crystals and metal watch links and gears. Well although Christian Siriano is yet to reveal the price that went into crafting this intriguing costume, but we must say – Christina Ricci truly rocked in this exclusive strapless black Timex Watch Dress.
