I told them that turning the SOUP Headquarters into the castle for the month would be a bad idea and of course nobody listened to me, or at the very least they didn't take me seriously. Now here we all are, in the burning remains of stones after some dragon decided to turn the foundation into a snack. What kind of dragon even eats stone as a meal?! In the fury of fires it just so happens that the staff's clothes had been burned, just our luck right? It's even luckier that there were enough paper bags laying around for us to turn into makeshift clothes. Since I'm giving our beloved staff a lesson on how to make paper bags fashionable it seemed almost fitting to inform the rest of Slytherin as well.
Layers are your best friend.
Similar to the concept of hair, you're gonna wanna layer these bad boys up! No, this doesn't mean that you have to wear twenty different bags because that's just a waste of material. This is gonna take some crafting skills and a good amount of paste, but adding some volume to that paper dress would bring some pop to the flat brown. I cut out some small strips and glued one end of them down so the papers can spin outwards.
Stay away from the paint!
This isn't a craft fair for a five-year-old, so the clothes shouldn't reflect that way. Besides if that dragon should ever decide to come back for another round of clothing burning I don't wanna be at ground zero when our paint supply goes up in flames. Again.
Glue on an extra five inches.
We went through the phase of clothes that're too short with actual fabric and I don't wanna see that again with paper. This isn't your Potions essay where you're just gonna write the bare minimum to get it done and over with, think of it as a written version of the "Don't get me started" game. Find a flow and go with it.
No swimming.
As it turns out, paper bags don't make very good swimsuits and I'm sure that the Merfolk don't want the mushy remains to end up in their environment more than the Muggles have been leaving it in the wild. Lets be a little bit better and actually keep it nice and dry, okay?
Fashion shows start right before dawn.
Okay, this might not actually be a fashion tip, but seeing off of the designs from our writers has me kind of interested in what my fellow Housemates would have to offer, so why don't we all put on a good show and see what happens? As long as we're all in agreement here, then I guess I'll see everyone there.
