Romance of Hats

Weather elegant, witty, or sporty, a hat is always lovely. Such a wonderful creation deserves a special tribute, and here It is. With advice on caring for millinery; ideas for refreshing an old hat or giving a new one the patina of age; and profiles of four innovative hatmakers. Beautiful photos present an array of fashions -- for weddings, to wear while fishing or beachcombing, and charming ones for an afternoon tea. Among the fashion standouts: the biggest, floppiest hat ever, in blue denim (great to pack for a trip); a romantic vintage style, embellished with pink flowers and lush bows; and several fine straws, including one the shade of a ripe plum. Plus: a whimsical look at hat pins and the secrets to wearing a hat with flair!Victoria Magazine Editors is the author of 'Romance of Hats' with ISBN 9781588162199 and ISBN 1588162192.
