— December 14, 2008 — Fashion
This amazing fashion fusion was created by artist and fashion designer Michael Cepress, who made these stunning paper collars for a traveling exhibition called ‘RRRIPP: Paper Fashion, a traveling exhibition highlighting the use of paper in fashion.’

Michael Cepress’ unique design work is also featured in a book that shows his work alongside renowned designers like John Galliano and Issey Miyake. With an MA in fine art and a keen interest in the male wardrobe and tailoring traditions, Michael Cepress’ work is an interesting crossover of art and fashion.

Those gorgeous paper collars should come with a dry clean only tag.
