Celebrating the inaugural SKYCITY Festival of Poker, Amber Peebles wore a specially designed chip dress worth $1 million at the SKYCITY Lee Nelson and Brooke Howard-Smith Celebrity & Media Invitational poker tournament last week.

The dress was made out of 200 casino chips worth $5000 each, and required the MTV presenter to have her own security team following her around.

Amber Peebles said: “When SKYCITY first pitched me on the idea of the Million Dollar Chip Dress I thought it was very Paris Hilton, but how many times does a girl get to wear a million bucks?”

The dress, weighed more than two kilograms, was made only for this event at the SkyCity Casino in Auckland, and will never be worn again.
