Suri Cruise may give mom Katie Holmes fashion advice, and North West may have more luxe duds than her mama, Kim Kardashian. But if you ask us, 4-year-old “Mayhem” is the biggest little fashionista of them all.
Using craft paper and tape, the mini designer makes one-of-a-kind
dresses (as well as red carpet and runway copies) — and they’re pretty
amazing.
Her mother, Angie, tells the Huffington Post that
she suggested making a dress out of paper last year and her
daughter
took the idea and ran with it. After awards shows, the pair Google
images and Mayhem picks which gowns she wants to make.
“At this point she knows exactly how many sheets of construction
paper she needs to make herself a top and a bottom,” she says. “She can
lay the entire thing out and tape it together all by herself.”
And when she showed her little girl a clip from Project Runway, and explained that there is a show all about making clothing, “I thought she might hyperventilate.”
Angie, who admits she can’t sew a straight line on a sewing machine,
uses tape and glue to hold together their fanciful creations that
sometimes include aluminum foil, tissue paper, wrapping paper and gift
bags.
Nine months after they started, they are still making the dresses, which you can see on their Instagram page and blog.
And while Angie says she isn’t sure when or where it will all end,
she adds “as long as she wants to make them, we’ll keep doing it.”
