Millinery piece

Millinery elective - final piece - Crow Hat ♥

Millinery work

As Mad As A Hatter

It's Elective week!

And i have chosen to do millinery.

We have 4 days to produce a moodboard, designs and a final piece.

So far we are on day 2, and i am thoroughly enjoying it.

My mum also keeps reminding me of how i made a bowler hat for my barbie doll when i was young and how she knew i would enjoy it.

But anyway, I am currently waiting for my hat to cool, and i will just have to finish it off tomorrow, then all is finished.

My theme for my hat has been taken from our current project.

Old Wisdom - Superstitions - Blackbirds.

I have looked into bird skulls for shape, and created my hat around this.

I will post up pictures of my hat waiting to cool and the finished outcome.

Here is a photo of a ring by Alexander McQueen that inspired me.

Here is my own ring, a cheaper and much smaller version from Urban Outfitters . . .

Maybe one day I'll upgrade.
