Meshing Around

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I’m knocked out by the sculptural headpieces crafted by ultra-mod designer Mary Ann Williams of Illu-stration.

The minute I saw this fanciful wire mesh accessory I knew Williams had something to say both about sustainable fabric and fashion as a 3D art form.

The hand-formed felt hat painted gold and copper is a contemporary take on the veiled designs of the  Forties and Fifties. Williams constructs her hats with the same eco-friendly washable and biodegradable felt used to sew her line of unforgettable rugs (see my earlier post on these luscious flokati pieces).

A little more wacky, more Clockwork Orange, are her felt hats emergent with architectural spikes of either paper, metal, wood or synthetics. 

I’m not sure if I would don one (a bit too ancient future) but they would be striking as props in the fashion forward dressing room or retail store. Investigate this award-winning, pro-planet designer at Illu-stration
