Michelle

Michelle - an amazing tango dancer and instructor - said she loves hats but doesn't look good in them. I took it as a challenge and used her favorite color scheme to make her a suede newsboy hat. Both colors came from old jackets. Click on the photo to see if we really do look like sisters.

Kelty

Kelty picked out a red cashmere and saffron-dyed wool pillbox with crescent decorations. The cashmere came from a men's sweater and the dyed wool from an old jacket. Click on the photo to see the patterns on top.  

 

Selma

It is not easy to get my mother to wear a hat but she gave in to my begging. Two pairs of pants went into creating this rakishly stylish hat, decorated with handmade flower and rosette. I think she looks very dashing in it.

Karl

Some customers are a little shy about having their pictures taken with their new hats... Karl is not among that crowd. He was happy to strike a pose with his winter hat (check custom designs page for his spring hat). His custom hat is made from a green suede dress and brown denim pants.
