DIY lab:The candy wrappers purse






A friend of mine went to New York and brought me as a present a coin purse by Nahui Ollin. I had already seen them online but i never had one of these in hand. These bags are made of candy wrappers folded and framed together. They form a line of paper then sewn together to form a thick fabric.
I wanted to find out how were they made and do a bag on my own! I made the one you see above!
We don't have these kind of candy wrappers but we can subsistute them with the paper of our fashion magazines! We just have to pull out the pages and cover them with scotch paper, the wide one to do it fast and then cut 2"x4.5" pieces.
The result will be fun, you'll have a lot of colored squares!
I warn you:to make a bag you'll need a lot of time but the result will repay you!
You can have of variety of final effects based on the paper you choose, you can choose a single color paper and obtain an effect similar to bottega veneta purses!Or a floral one in this case you'll see random pieces of flowers. Animal print, the leopard one will work well too and it's in fashion right now.
Wanna make this bag?

Origami fashion part 2







I'm still obsessed with origami fashion. I like the way fabric is transformed in a rigid material like paper(some of the dresses above are made of paper). I like the geometric repetition, the bold effect it makes. They're more like scuptures than dresses. I don't know if they exalt a woman's figure because the dress draws all the attention but i find them inspiring.

Origami fashion

I'm started becoming more and more interested in origami fashion.
I like this paper appereance of fabric, the structured pieces and the geometrical repetition. I like the work that has to be done to make the fabric look like this because fabric is not as stiff as paper. These designs continue to fashinate me.
It's a challenge to make something wearable that is not made of paper.
Here's some designers tries.
