Each of his paper garments represents a different male character or archetype, all personally relevant to Lauren (who happens to be the nephew of fashion legend Ralph Lauren), and painstakingly crafted over the last year and a half. The resulting pieces are absolutely incredible – beautiful, exacting, layered with multiple meanings. The show is on view at 28 Wooster Street through November 1st.

I'm curious as to the nature of "Japanese Paper." Does it a have a different feel than other paper or is purely geographic? I guess fashion really runs in that family.
