Description

Fusion of old and New, classic shape with 2018 spin. Repurposing the Pom poms from a vintage hat gives it an Art Deco look.

I love taking old hats that were worn by family and friends and using unique parts of them in new pieces.

  • Blush leather crown over fosshape 300
  • blush buntal mat
  • black patent leather hat band
  • vintage (circa 1962) feather Pom Poms

Techniques

  • Blocked buntal mat on sloped fascinator brim, blocked fossshape on boater crown and blocked leather over foss shape
  • Sewed crown and brim together, sewed on hat band and sewed on Pom poms.
