From the Author

This book was such a joy to create and write! Combining my two passions of Origami and Fashion. I created most of the models while traveling in Europe and spending time in Paris so I was definitely influenced by the modern trends in fashion.  I hope you enjoy the fun and exciting models in the book and create your own paper wardrobe! Happy Folding! -Sok

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book
Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2016
Verified Purchase
I love this book! Every detail is perfect – from the wonderful designs to the included paper, the style tips to the explanations, I’ve already bought a few copies to give to friends and will be buying more. Most importantly for me, a relatively inexperienced folder, the stated difficulty levels are accurate, and the written and illustrated instructions are very easy to follow. I’m always looking for age appropriate and gender-neutral crafts to make with the middle and high school students I work with, and this book has been the answer. My students are having a blast with it. Thank you Sok Song!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book and comes paper !
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2016

An excellent addition to any origami library. A lovely well thought out book, that as an added bonus comes with paper designed specifically for each model in the book. Good for experienced folders and beginners as well, and the majority of the models are flat, which is great for those who make their own greeting cards or swap ATCS. The only complaint,( which is not really a complaint ) is where can I get more of the lovely paper that is in books. You may want to consider buying two or three of the books just so as to get more of the paper.

I really like the idea of the book for my granddaughters Christmas gift. She is very artsy, enjoys sketching people and their clothes and I think she will enjoy the origami with fashion. She has 2 sisters and I think they will enjoy some of the book as well. It might even stir an interest in other origami projects, especially for the 7 year old with easier projects and in the future with this book..

Purchased this for Christmas for my friends daughter. She has already made several of the patterns into her creative designs. What's next for her? Project Runway? This is a great gift that encourages creativity, patience and stimulates the mind.

Wow - the dresses are killer; such a great combination of Fashion Design and Origami Design. I can see many of the accessories being table name tags for that special dinner party. And what not to love about the papers.....very calming colours and patterns.
