These one-of-a-kind paper sculptures by Belgian artist Isabelle de Borchgrave are on exhibit in Naples, Florida, spanning 500 years of fashion history.
Isabelle de Borchgrave was profiled before on The Art Junkie, here, in a post that will give you a more close-up look at her technique.
This exhibition includes stunning life-size recreations of ornate Renaissance gowns, dressings culled from world-class paintings, and costumes from the Ballet Russes. (See more on this video, a promotion for the exhibit when it was in Oklahoma City in 2018)
