- In The Folds of Fashion -

​

​

The main focus of this project is to demonstrate the creative and enduring relationship between paper and fashion. To show this, Madelynn created fifteen garments in a cohesive collection in which some pieces are created entirely from paper or entirely from fabric, in addition to the garments that are a mixture of both. The pieces use techniques from typical processes of garment production, as well as origami techniques, which are included as a nod to one of the traditional methods of manipulating paper.
