Baton
Rouge, La. – Southern University Apparel Merchandising and Textiles (AMTX) students
have designed beautiful wedding dresses with newspaper as the fabric.
The
floor length dresses, along with newspaper headpieces, were a part of a project
in the Sustainability in Design class. The project was meant to “stretch the
students’ talent, skills and abilities as a designer,” according to the project
assignment provided to the students.
The
newspaper wedding gowns are currently displayed in the lobby of Southern
University’s John B. Cade Library. The exhibit will run until March.
AMTX
is one of three concentrations offered in the Department of Family and Consumer
Sciences within the College of Agricultural, Family and Consumer Sciences. For more
