Les chapeaux


At the Marché Art et Création Bastille, I found these girls looking like a scene from days gone by... except for the McDo's cups!

Yes, take off Macdo and we'll see a "roaring 20ies" scene!

How wonderful that these hats are being made by hand? Each one an original. I hope the see your image of their work.

A different hat for every day and every purpose... hope you took a few home with you !

Was just looking through your recent posts, see you've been busy, as always. Was away travelling in Italy for a couple of weeks, always fun to catch up and see what you've been posting... no end of Parisian delights !

Totally charming! (Well, except for the McDo cups) I love that they're all modeling their wares.

They are certainly absorbed in making their hats! :)

I love this image Virginia, it really does look like it could have been taken in the 1920's oui! Aimee has a hat just like the one on the table to the right, she is such a hat person. She's just restarted her fashion blog, check it out and see her 'RED bowler hat' that she's wearing today.. It's called Midnight Pie (on my sidebar)

Je suis heureuse que les chapeaux se portent de plus en plus... j'aime tant ça!
Dans ma région à Chazelles-sur-Lyon il y a la fabrique des chapeaux...

J'aime beaucoup cette photo, elle a un air un peu rétro, les jeunes femmes avec leurs chapeaux "cloche" un petit côté années 30 ! Très sympathique ambiance !
