This darling little dress is made from Japanese chiyogami paper patterned in silver dots on a yellow background
full of shiny rayon fibres
The fringes hang loose from the body of the dress
the originals were of painted kid leather
whether it's the flat funnel shape of the Tudor and Georgian periods
