做紙裙的由來(lái)

I started following @2sisters_angie a little over a year ago. Back then she was posting the typical stuff you see from moms on Instagram -- pics of her daughter at the park and pics of her daughter eating breakfast.
幾年前我在instagram上關(guān)注了@2sisters_angie這個(gè)賬號(hào)，那時(shí)她發(fā)的就是些母親們經(jīng)常發(fā)的東西：女兒在公園的照片，女兒吃早飯的照片。

Then, about nine months ago, Angie's feed started to change. It became clear Angie's daughter (she calls her "Mayhem") was more interested in fashion than the average 4-year-old. Mayhem shunned her store-bought princess dresses and started wrapping herself with scarves and sheets creating her own styles.
大概9個(gè)月前開(kāi)始，這個(gè)賬號(hào)變得不太一樣了。比起其他4歲的小孩，Angie的女兒（她叫女兒Mayhem）顯然對(duì)時(shí)尚有更為濃厚的興趣。Mayhem拋開(kāi)從商店買來(lái)的公主裙，開(kāi)始用圍巾和床單包裹自己，打造自己的風(fēng)格。

Then one day Angie got tired of finding her clothes in Mayhem's toy box and suggested they make a dress out of paper. Mayhem loved the idea and they haven't stopped creating paper dresses since.
然后有一天，Angie厭倦了總是在女兒的玩具盒里找到自己的衣服，于是提議用紙來(lái)做裙子。Mayhem喜歡這個(gè)主意，從此她們便一直用紙來(lái)制作裙子。

作品驚艷網(wǎng)友

I've been continually amazed every time Angie's pictures pop up in my feed.
每次我瀏覽訂閱的內(nèi)容看到Angie曬出的照片，總會(huì)對(duì)她們的作品驚嘆不已。

給母親的問(wèn)題

Having a 4-year-old daughter of my own, I had a few questions for Angie.
因?yàn)槲易约阂灿袀€(gè)4歲的女兒，我向Angie請(qǐng)教了些問(wèn)題。

談母女的分工

How much is done by you and how much is done by your daughter?
每件作品有多少是你做的，多少是你女兒做的？

The ideas are pretty much a 50/50 split, but Mayhem constructs a lot more than most people would probably believe. That's one of the best things about this project, I see her learning new skills every single day. At this point, she can lay the entire thing out and tape it together all by herself. Definitely, the more complex designs have more of my time invested, but she's literally always beside me learning something new.
五五開(kāi)吧，Mayhem所做的遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超出了大多數(shù)人的想象。我每天看著她學(xué)習(xí)新技能，這是此事最好的方面之一?，F(xiàn)在她已經(jīng)能夠自己設(shè)計(jì)整條裙子，并把東西粘貼起來(lái)。當(dāng)然，設(shè)計(jì)越復(fù)雜，我投入的精力就越多，但是Mayhem一直在我身邊跟我學(xué)。

談裙子的材料

Are all the dresses made of paper?
所有的裙子都是用紙做的嗎？

Most of the time. We use a lot of construction paper, but we also use tissue paper, wrapping paper, and gift bags. We have also used silk scarves, tulle, and aluminum foil. Clear packing tape and glue are our adhesives of choice.
大多都是。我們用了很多美術(shù)紙，但是我們也會(huì)用棉紙、包裝紙和禮品袋，此外我們還用到過(guò)絲巾、薄紗和鋁箔。干凈的包扎帶和膠水是我們的黏合工具。

鯊魚裙

Where does she find her inspiration? Is she watching runway shows and award shows?
你女兒是從哪里找設(shè)計(jì)靈感的？她有看T臺(tái)走秀和頒獎(jiǎng)典禮嗎？

We pull inspiration from wherever we go. The shark dress, for example, came as a direct result of her first visit to an aquarium.
我們從去過(guò)的任何地方找靈感。比如說(shuō)這條鯊魚裙，就是她第一次去水族館后獲得的靈感。

米老鼠

She also gets a lot of ideas from shows that she watches or books we read, like Minnie Mouse, My Little Pony and Elsa from "Frozen."
她也會(huì)從看過(guò)的表演或讀過(guò)的書中汲取想法，比如《米老鼠》、《我的小馬駒》以及《冰雪奇緣》中的艾爾莎。

模仿詹妮弗·勞倫斯

Sometimes I'll Google images the day after award shows, so she can see the dresses worn on the red carpet and pick which ones she wants to make.
有時(shí)在頒獎(jiǎng)禮第二天，我會(huì)用谷歌搜索圖片，讓她看明星在紅毯上的穿著，挑選她自己想做的款式。

模仿《天橋風(fēng)云》

We also leave a tab open on our iPad with a search for "project runway dresses" so that we can quickly reference those as well. She's never actually seen an episode of Project Runway, but I did show her a clip one time explaining that there is a show all about making dresses.
我們也在iPad上留著一個(gè)標(biāo)簽頁(yè)，搜索"project runway dresses"，那樣我們可以快速將節(jié)目中出現(xiàn)的裙子拿來(lái)做參考。事實(shí)上她從沒(méi)看過(guò)一集《天橋風(fēng)云》，但是有次我給她看了一個(gè)片段，告訴她有這樣一個(gè)關(guān)于服裝制作的節(jié)目。

一生的愛(ài)好？

Do you think this is going to be a lifelong interest for Mayhem?
你認(rèn)為這會(huì)成為Mayhem一生的愛(ài)好嗎？

After we made our first paper dress, Mayhem requested another the very next day. Then another the day after that. And no one is more surprised than I am, that she still wants to make them nearly 9 months later. I have no idea if it will continue, but as long as she wants to make them, we'll keep doing it.
在我們完成了第一條紙裙后，Mayhem第二天就要求再做一條，就這樣一直持續(xù)著。9個(gè)月后，她依然想要做，對(duì)于這一點(diǎn)沒(méi)有人比我更驚訝的了。我不清楚她是否會(huì)保持這股熱情，但是只要她想做，我們就會(huì)一直做下去。
