In an era where fashion and sustainability often collide, Russian blogger Kristina Selyutina has captured the internet’s imagination by transforming the ubiquitous green delivery bags of a popular online marketplace into a fully structured corset. The viral video, shared on her Instagram account, showcases a process that is part sculpture, part sartorial ingenuity. Selyutina began by drafting paper patterns, taping them directly onto her body to create a custom mold. From this prototype, she cut the iconic branded plastic—a material more commonly associated with doorstep deliveries than high fashion—and assembled the pieces into a dramatic, waist-cinching silhouette. The back is punctuated with hand-punched lacing holes, while paper flowers and rhinestones add a touch of whimsy. “I’ve never done anything like this before,” she wrote. “I’m even shocked I can do this.” Commenters were equally stunned, with reactions ranging from “the best thing I’ve ever seen” to “absolutely groundbreaking.” This DIY corset is a modern echo of the garment’s radical history—once a tool of aristocratic posture in 16th-century Europe, the corset has been reclaimed by contemporary makers as a canvas for personal expression and material rebellion. Selyutina’s work, born from plastic and tape, proves that the corset’s power to reshape not only the body but also our perception of value remains as potent as ever.
