A high school student majoring in arts grabbed the spotlight at a school fashion show when she modelled a mini-skirt and hat made of thousands of brooches.

The girl, Zhang Kaiying, called her design "danger spotlight" in reference to the needles on the brooches, which are made of shiny metal. Zhang said she had spent three weeks stringing all the brooches into a hat and skirt. To lower her costs, Zhang asked her father, who works in Shanghai, to mail her 12,000 brooches because they are cheaper there. Zhang used 15,000 brooches.
