Garbo-esque

(Grey felt fedora with wide brim, 2008)
Hat making is in full swing. Today was the first day working with straw. It's very much a learn-as you go process. Later in the day investigated hats at posh Bergdorf Goodman. Looking carefully at the hats on display realized the millinery techniques that were once a mystery to me are now part of my skill-set.

Made a grey felt fedora with a deep crown reminiscent of a style Garbo might have worn.
