Doesn’t it look straight out of the pages of a 1950s issue of Vogue? Like this maybe…

Hmm, perhaps my next “Hat of the Week” feature will just be hat photos from vintage Vogue…

I’ve forgotten where I got these photos from, but I think they all belong to the same milliner, so I’ll post them all together in the hopes that someone recognizes the work and can let me know who made these wonderful hats!

Absolutely wonderful flapper-style headdress with beaded appliques and ostrich feathers sweeping away from the face. Many similar finds on Etsy…

I taught last weekend in a place called Sasso Marconi outside of Bologna, and now I’m relaxing for a few days with my friends Silvia and Bruno in Genova. Though I’m not really taking advantage of being in wonderful Italy (I’m taking the downtime to try to get my business in order, so I’m spending most of my time on my laptop), still it’s always so great to be here! The Italians are wonderful (and crazy!), the pesto is so good here in Genova, and when we watched the first Italian World Cup match the other night, we could hear the crowds roaring outside. Viva Italia!

viva italia!

The costume is new, with my corset and pointe shoes gathering more and more Swarovski crystals by the day!
