The Book Dress

The Book  Dress for Readers:

Saw this on Little Augury Blog.  I don't care for the styling of this dress, but I love the fabric. If you wear this dress, you'll always have something to read, albeit only titles, but so many of them. There's a lot of book fabric out there, but I haven't seen this fabric before.

Dress by Zero and Maria Cornejo


I do like this "Book" dress for little ones. From Denmark. What a great reading tool: 


Then there are the Dresses Made of Books.  Many are made from phone books because the paper  lends itself to design and easy handling. However, the following dress is made completely of Little Golden Books. It seems more like a Project Runway Challenge:

The fabric is fun - and right you are, what a hideous dress.

The little girl's dress is adorable.

A mystery writer might say: I wouldn't be caught dead in that dress." Thanks for fun photos, Janet, and now I shall slink off...

Honestly if this reed thin models look like pieces of furniture can you imagine what I'd look like wearing one of these. Yikes!
