Beyonce bodysuit puts Aussie designer on the map

A bodysuit made out of recycled plastic document folders has put an Aussie designer on the map thanks to Beyonce's interest in her.
Bethany Cordwell told Today she couldn't believe it when the singer's team emailed her just before Easter, asking her to custom make something for Renaissance's promotional material.
"It was just incredibly, incredibly exciting. I couldn't believe it at all," Bethany told Today.

She said the bodysuit is made from plastic document folders she bought from Officeworks which she painstakingly cut and pieced together individually.
"I hand-cut all the scales and individually sewed all of them on to the bodysuit," she said.
"I've had so much support from family and friends and new people who have now found my work through Beyonce wearing my bodysuit. It's just been amazing."
Bethany said she hopes to dress more celebrities and musicians thanks to Beyonce's exposure. Today
