For a photoshoot, photographer Matthew Brodie created out-of-the-box looking dresses from paper.

“We really wanted to create something beautiful from a material that doesn’t normally lend itself to being draped and shaped on a living being, it had to be apparent that it was paper, but not because it looked shit,” Brodie wrote.

Brodie and his team handcrafted and designed each dress with different kinds of paper, such as tissue and brown paper, with a theme in mind.

“Paper is not a malleable material, but eventually the idea showed itself to us and we had five dresses and props that we’d make,” he wrote.

The shoot was for the March 2011 issue of Madame magazine, and to Brodie, it was the most fun, and most challenging to date.
