Recessionista: A Stephen Jones-Inspired Paper Hat
February 11, 2009 1:45pm
What: A paper hat from the newspaper of your choice, made by you.
Why: The Guardian has an interview with master hatmaker Stephen Jones today, who, besides providing headgear for Rei Kawakubo and John Galliano, has outfitted plenty a posh head in his day—Gwen Stefani, Beyoncé Knowles, Dita Von Teese, etc. The accompanying DIY video got us thinking: Why should good millinery be the first thing to go in a down economy? We can’t think of anything more uplifting than a beau chapeau. And plus, did you see the fringe on this thing?
Where: At the bodega nearest you.
How: Watch the clip.
