Metro Newspaper Dress and Photography Project

The Project:

The Metro Newspaper Dress and Photography Project was a complex group project and was inspired by the idea of a paper dress. The dress was composed and designed out of a selection of approximately 100 ‘Best of’ London METRO newspapers, collected from London Underground, years 2010/11. The pattern design for the Metro Newspaper dress is a Wedding dress design apart from the ‘tail’ I added. For this project we had a professional agency model and the dress was specifically tailored for her.
