On 13th September, the ARENATZarte park in Güeñes will host a new edition of its Paper Dress Competition – a true showcase of artistic talent using nothing but paper, known for its high level of craftsmanship.

The dresses, all original and made entirely from paper, can be sewn by hand or machine, but glue, staples or any other type of fastening or reinforcement are not allowed.

The Güeñes competition is one of the oldest and most prestigious of its kind. It was first held in 1958, an initiative by the local community to honour Enkarterri's textile and paper-making heritage.
