For Amy M. Phillips and Fairlight Hubbard, the founders of talent agency Eye Management, the sight of the morning paper on a doorstep doesn't just conjure up visions of hot coffee, a steamy shower, and a desire to dive back under the covers. In the creative duo's latest photo spread,"Extra, Extra Paper Doll," Phillips and Hubbard unleash the hidden potential of common newsprint by refashioning it into glamorous, screen-siren-worthy ensembles. Modeled by Emily O'Daniel, the papery confections are instantly transformed, morphing from everyday reading material into the trappings of high fashion.
HEAR YE, HEAR YE
A newspaper bearing headlines about the economic slump is hardly the stuff of romance, but for Fairlight Hubbard and Amy M. Phillips, the power of the periodical extends far beyond its ability to inform. The creative twosome, who front Eye Management, a talent agency in Nashville, designed a series of vintage-inspired garments made completely from newspaper. Inspired by Hubbard’s own frugal upbringing—she began her artistic career using found materials like brown paper bags and leaves—“Extra, Extra Paper Doll” was executed by cutting, folding, and taping swathes of newsprint directly onto a model.The clothes were made by cutting, folding, and taping swathes of newsprint directly onto a model.
At the close of the shoot, all the newspaper was gathered up and sent to a recycling plant, where they now await their second (or is that third?) coming.
