West Coast milliner Laura Kranitz has a sense of humor about her one-of-a-kind hats and headpieces. "Some have ended up on best-dressed lists. Others have found their way onto worst-dressed lists," she says. "Either way, they're turning heads." Bad puns aside, Kranitz's toppers, which are inspired by everything from folk costume design to Victorian pageantry and over-the-top rococo opulence, have been spotted on assorted L.A. stylists, models, actresses, musicians, and writers. The California native has a handy resource for her ruffled ribbons, feathers, and retro fabrics: Her day job is at Golyester, the vintage emporium. For more information, see www.laurakranitz.com.
