Recreate the glamour of vintage millinery and learn a range of practical skills
Making Vintage Hats explains how to craft stunning designs from the Edwardian era to the 1980s, using authentic techniques and inspiration from real museum pieces. With clear step-by-step instructions, close-up photos and expert tips, you’ll learn the art of millinery while making twelve beautiful projects – from feathered Edwardian showpieces to sparkling 1920s evening caps and elegant 1950s velvet half-hats.
JO LANCE is a fashion historian, museum curator and hat-maker with a background in textiles. She has contributed costume for performance and her hats also appear in Making Edwardian Costumes for Women and Making Vintage 1920s Clothes for Women by Suzanne Rowland, also published by Crowood.
