Do you like colorful papers?

The Art Directors Club of Denver presented the eighth annual Paper Fashion Show Thursday, March 15, 2012 at the Seawell Grand Ballroom at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts. Guests were treated to 50 original fashion designs created (almost) entirely of paper. Flowers, wings, lace and all assortments of gowns, dresses, corsets and accessories found their way on the runway in every color of the rainbow. Jim Wills brings back these photos for Westword: Slide show: 2012 Paper Fashion Show.

Below are a few highlights.
