This is my latest paper dress creation inspired by a gown worn by Dorothea Savina von Neuberg in 1598. Note the long train on the back of the skirt which would have dragged on the ground.

Paper Dress Series

This is my latest sculpture creation, a miniature paper dress in the style of a gown worn in 1639 by Dorothea Maria Von Sulzbach (Bayerisches National Museum).
It took me months of work to figure out how to make paper behave like fabric. I tried numerous times and threw many attempts in the garbage.
