This hand stitched paper dress is based on a teal panné silk velvet evening dress from the late 1920s by ‘McAvoy, Chicago’, offered for sale by Augusta Auctions in 2022. The dress features a gold lame underdress, which I’ve replicated with a metallic hemp & silk tissue.

The dress is six inches tall, stitched by hand on 8x10 inch 100% cotton watercolour paper, which means that it will pop right into any commercial frame in that size, and be ready to hang on your wall.

Materials: Nepalese lokta paper, metallic hemp & silk tissue and cotton floss on cotton paper; 24.5 x 20.3 cm (10 x 8")
