Description
Images from my childhood deeply inspire me each day and confident women in elegant headwear play an important role. My grand ma especially was know to wear tall towering head ties called “Onile Gogoro” and I loved playing dress up with them! The Nefertiti Hat is my joyful ode to grandma.
