Ricci's Oscars Dress Goes to Michigan Prom

                                                                        Christina Ricci/Kayla Staskiewicz

Lots of teenage girls go all out for their prom, but few get to wear a $25,000 Versace Couture dress designed for actress Christina Ricci.

Ricci wore the sparkling, pale gray, floor-length dress to this year's Oscars.

Kayla Staskiewicz wore it to Waterford Mott High School's prom, which was held May 13 in suburban Detroit.
Her father, Mike Staskiewicz, entered her name in a WDIV-TV contest to win a chance to wear the size 0 dress, The Oakland Press of Pontiac reported Sunday.

"He thought our daughter would look beautiful in that dress and with the size being only a zero, he knew she would have a good chance to fit into it because she is very small," said her mother, Gayle Staskiewicz.

The day before the prom, Kayla Staskiewicz stepped into the dress and found it fit perfectly.

"I was just excited and ready to go to the prom right then and there," she said.

Staskiewicz said she felt "really pretty" and her mom kept calling her Cinderella. She said she, prom date Connor Durham and their friends had a great night.

"I loved every minute of it," she said.
