Want to stand out in the crowd but don’t know how? Paper Wear, a line of comfortable designed garments by House-Wear is the answer to your question. Yes, they are indeed made of paper, a specific material known as Tyvek.
Paper-wear
The dress is made up of tyvek, a non-woven material that is usually used for making envelopes. It is very strong, breathable and water resistant. The dresses are also machine washable and totally recyclable.
Is it comfortable?
The very idea of wearing a paper dress seems very uncomfortable and unrealistic. However, surprisingly this dress feels pretty comfortable against the skin. It feels more like crisp linen than paper. Moreover, it gets softer with every wash.
Green quotient
The dress is completely recyclable. Moreover, the dress can be composted into rich soil for your garden when you are done using them. House wear promotes recycling. It sends all of its manufacturing scraps, wastes to the Tyvek Recycling Center in Richmond, VA, and encourages everyone who buys Paper Wear to do the same when they are done using them. House-Wear is produced in a small design studio in New York instead of in a big factory, therefore less pollution.
