Amelia Hennighausen needed a dress made from Tyvek and printed with a pattern made of images scanned from the covers of popular women's fashion magazines.
The Dress maker was able to produce the dress from 30ft of DuPont Tyvek banner material that we printed for the purpose.
Tyvek is a spun nylon material used in a range of items from FedEx envelopes to waterproofing buildings. It makes an ideal banner material as it is lightweight and flexible, without texture (unlike canvas) and as you can see it can be sewn (or grommeted, or taped, or glued, or...)
