Brilio.net/en - Artist and designer Asya Kozina was asked by an underwear brand to create a series of image-shooting in wedding theme representing multiple cultures. Instead of buying rolls of satin, brocade or lace, she turned to the material most people wouldnt think much of: Papers.

The wedding dresses, in most cultures, is somehow meant to hide the bride from the groom. But on the other hand, in Kozinas case, they also have to reveal the beauty of the underwear product. Well, thats a challenge, considering the fact that in some countries the wedding dress also covers not only the body but also the face completely.

On the stage of sketches for shooting, it was hard to imagine stylized national costume, which would expose intimate parts, Kozina wrote on Boredpanda. But the final result was so conventional that it did not seem vulgar and anaesthetic in combination with underwear.

Besides being stunningly beautiful and out of the box, the most important thing to keep in mind is that these paper wedding dresses shouldnt offend the sensibilities of culture bearers, whose costume she took as a foundation for her creative process.

Costumes are unique not only in the world, they are unique in each individual family, she wrote.
