1960'S FAD PAPER DRESSES

Paper dresses were a silly 1960's fad started by Scott Paper Company. They sold paper dresses to advertise their new line of paper goods and soon other companies started selling the inexpensive dresses, which were meant to be worn only once or twice and then thrown away. These are just a few of the companies that advertised the novelty items.

paper dresses


Paper Dresses was an odd fad from the 1960's. The dresses were made of treated paper, they could not be washed, were basically created for one or two uses.

I don't know why anyone would want a shapeless dress made of paper, but they were a huge hit. Quite a few companies made dresses based on their products, including this Campbell soup dress.
