Title
The Paper Shoes - Herbert Levine, Designed by Kathryn Stoll Paige
Description
An even less sustainable material that made its way into fashion during the period was paper. As it was so readily available, and cheap in comparison to some materials, it is no wonder that paper began its debut into fashion. The choice to use vinyl and paper for fashion were a direct result of the need to innovate, and experiment with what is fashion. Experimental materials began creating a path for fashion that was unheard of yet. Even when combined with more traditional designs, these new materials created looks that went beyond what has been imagined before.
