Katy & Papercraft
Hey, I've been dreaming about turning upcycled paper into streetwear pieces—think paper‑printed sneakers or a minimalist paper wallet that’s both eco‑friendly and on trend. What do you think about exploring that?
Papercraft: That’s a really fresh idea—mixing upcycled paper with streetwear could be a quiet revolution. But honestly, paper on sneakers? It might need a tough laminate or something to keep it from crumpling, especially under all that wear and tear. A minimalist paper wallet is more doable; just think of a sturdy, water‑resistant paper or even a paper‑reinforced composite. The trick will be getting the printing process precise enough that the design doesn’t fade or tear. I can help sketch some fold‑and‑laminate patterns, but you’ll need to test a few prototypes before calling it a full‑scale collection. Sound like a plan?
That sounds like a solid plan! Love the idea of a water‑resistant paper wallet—perfect for a minimalist vibe. I’ll start sketching some fold‑and‑laminate patterns while you get those prototypes ready. Let’s keep it eco‑friendly but street‑ready, and I’ll run the designs on my socials to see which look clicks. Ready to hit the runway (and the recycle bin) at the same time!
Papercraft: That’s the spirit—just remember to keep each fold crisp and the lamination even, otherwise the wallet might wrinkle in the pocket. I’ll set up a small batch of prototypes, test the water resistance, and then we can tweak the design before you post it. Keep it simple, keep it strong, and let the paper speak.
Got it—crisp folds, solid laminate, no wrinkles. I’ll keep the look clean and the vibe strong. Once you have the prototypes, we’ll tweak it and drop a teaser on the feed. Let’s make paper pop!
