I am currently reading the biography of Chinese acrobat and magician Long Tack Sam written by his great granddaughter Ann Marie Fleming. On page 9 is a small crude origami diagram of something she folded as a child which she called either a "bra" or a "hat"

The book is a follow up to her documentary film she made on Long Tack Sam (1884-1961) that I saw back in 2003. It is a wonderfully constructed film and with a combination of animation and vintage footage and it contains the same humor and irony as in her book.

Here's the book: http://www.amazon.com/Magical-Life-Long-Tack-Sam/dp/ 1594482640/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1358975426&sr=1-1

Here's the movie: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379360/

cheers,
