Great hats! I live in the South and I love seeing the ladies wearing their hats on Sundays. It just seems so - well, festive. Really and truly Sunday.
When I lived in New York (where older black ladies still wear hats on Sundays) there were women in Harlem who had little “home haberdashery shops” in their apartments where they specialized in designing and making these hats.
I still have her hats. I'll have to have the right suit to wear with each one of them.
IF I lose another 20 pounds I will be able to fit into her black wool Chanel suit -- it has an adorable little hat that goes with it - a tiny black wool triangle with a little cloud of netting and a few jet spangles. It's cute.
