Sewing, knitting, weaving, embroidering, painting, printing, shredding, layering and folding could be done to create the outfit but were prohibited to use glue.
Students prepared sultana and shell-decorated Thai dress to the elaborate Japanese samurai costume made from silver paper and cloth hooks.
