Beyonce showed up to the 2015 Met Gala in a stunning sequin Givenchy dress, wearing a high ponytail. A year later, 18-year-old high school student from St. Louis, Missouri, India Ross was inspired into making a reprica which she wore to her school prom.


And not only did she she nail it, Ross also perfected Bey's ponytail and poses. She purchased the materials at Walmart, Michaels, and eBay, and with the help of a local designer named Toi Hall, along with Hall's brother, created the perfect replica. The teen even nailed Bey's slick high ponytail.

The high school senior told Us Weekly that the dress cost $800 to make and was mesh with 2,000 hand-placed crystals, but it was all worth it at the end.

Since the dress went viral, Ross has received a lot of hates...and of course hatred. Some people said her dress looked like a "cheap knock-off." and wasn't as see-through as Beyonce's. Duh! She is only 18.
