Wonder-hats @ Gina Foster
British seem to have a dual relationship with fashion. Either they will be very discreet, faded colours, shapeless clothes or strict tie and suit. Or they will mix and match styles, colours, textures, add a pinch of crazyness, a doze of retro, of vintage, of rock’n'roll. Flashy colours, boots in summer, high heels that wouold give you vertigo.
I am particularly fascinated by the hats. French, well, they will settle for a bob, a cap, perheaps a Michael Jackson/Billie Jean kind of hat. But here, what a collection you have for weddings and Ascott! 9 years in the country and I still gasp in wonder (and jealousy, I never dared to wear one of those although I’m dying to). Some are large enough in diameter to be small parasols. Others are sculptural by their minimalism. Fascinating.
One of my favourite mad hatters is Gina Foster. I never go to High Street Kensington without a stroll via ther almost hidden Church Lane to see what she has in store…
Want something unique? Oh, she’ll have it. She’ll make every head turn!
