A 21-YEAR-OLD British woman was dressed to kill — and it saved her life.

Zoe Turner — clad in a sexy, hip-hugging dress — was taking a cab home from a Christmas party when it was struck by a cement mixer, the Telegraph reported.

Turner and her three friends were critically injured in the accident and doctors told her that the skin-tight red “bodycon” dress she was wearing likely prevented her broken bones from perforating her organs.

“The doctors told me that if I hadn’t worn such a tight dress which held in place my bones as the car impacted, I would have most definitely punctured vital organs as my bones went out of place,” said Turner, who was seated in the front passenger seat, wearing a seat belt.

The driver’s head shattered the windshield and her three friends, who weren’t wearing seat belts in the back seat, were left unconscious in the December 14 accident.

“I was in unimaginable pain as I stumbled out of the car,” said Turner, who suffered multiple injuries including a fractured pelvis, fractured vertebra and broken sternum.

The cabbie suffered a broken neck and the other three victims had various broken bones.

“I couldn’t believe my dress saved my life. That’s the best £35 ($A67) I’ve ever spent,” said Turner, who was released after five days in the hospital. “I’ll never forget that red dress — it’s just a shame it didn’t survive too!”
