I’m so old that…
I remember paper dresses.
Didn’t have one. Don’t think I ever actually saw one. Was certainly intrigued by the fad, though. Everyone was talking about them! We thought about whether we could possibly make our own…I don’t think we really understood that they weren’t just tissue paper. We thought that the dresses might fall apart on you while you were wearing them!
(What brought it to mind was the topic about getting rid of silverfish, and questions of what do they eat…paper and clothing, among other things.)
