Eco Factor: Upcycled outfit is made from 1,000 newspaper cranes.
In the wild wonderful world of crafting recycle, reuse and upcycle are magical procedures which can create a marvel. Lifting green fashion to a new high is designer Yuliya Kyrpo with her expertly crafted newspaper gown. An example of extreme origami, the beautiful gown with its headlining bustier dress and flowing peacock train has been made from old metro newspapers. Kyrpo used 1,000 paper cranes, each folded painstakingly to make this adorable dress. This eye catching amazing outfit is on display as part of the Trash Fashion show underway at London’s Science Museum.
