THE PILL BOX

Looking for a chi chi alternative to the veil?  Sophisticated bridal dressing like this  gives you the opportunity really 'vogue' it up and wear those short kid gloves, carry a tiny satin clutch or sport that pill box hat with a wisp of veiling. Speaking of pill boxes, this one  makes a  great stand-in if you're looking to change out the traditional veil.  Round and brimless, this hat is worn either centered, tilted or back on the head.  Though this style was introduced in the 1930s, Jackie Kennedy revived the look.   Generally this hat looks best with suits and fitted sheath designs; super with most other silhouettes even bell shapes like this one (The TIFFANY Dress).  I have to give a shout out here to the talented Joy Strotz who captured these lovely photos of model Sabrina in my creations . . .
