A friend of mine just decided to sell some clothes and accessories, and was kind enough to ask me if I wanted to buy a certain hat from her, before she sold it to someone else. When I saw it, I definitely felt this one needed to be added to my hat collection! And here is why...
Gorgeous, isn't is?... It's a half hat from the 1940s or 50s, covered in the softest white feathers, that has light-pink nuances in it.
As the label on the inside says, it originally comes from Modes Bettina in Vienna. I googled the name, but unfortunately I didn't find any info about it's origins.
It fits my small-sized head perfectly, and I feel I could definitely dance Swan Lake in it. Haha! Love my new hat...
Soooooo beautiful! Have you thought about wearing it with a grown up tutu (I made my own black circle skirt out of 10 layers of tulle) in blush? and a pair of ballet flats? Taking my love of ballet way too literally with this hat as the inspiration piece!
ReplyDeleteI can imagine that tulle skirt you made is beautiful! Wearing tulle makes you feel pretty. :) I will probably end up wearing this hat with one of my vintage ball gowns. Many of which ARE made of tulle! :) xx
