Accessory to Fashion...

So! I planned my next semester for my Fashion program. I am going to be taking Draping, Apparel Design Development (you work on creating a cohesive collection), and CAD (amongst other classes, unrelated to the program--FENCING!). I am starting to plan for my senior fashion show, and I am thrilled that I did not get a door in my face for the accessory show idea. I want my show to focus more on purses, hats, hairbands, and brooches rather than clothing. I have some great ideas (at least I think so) and I can't wait to show them. It is when I start thinking of these things that I remember why I am even trying in the fashion industry. Which leads us to the tip of the week.....
"That head band is banging"
Head bands are so much fun! Especially lately, now that feathers and fun details have taken center stage, get a fun headband!
I don't particularly have a connection to Urban outfitters, but I was there with my mom this weekend, and we saw these...


My mother and sister found a miliner in Boston who makes amazing headbands and hats.


You can find their styles at galvinized-hats.com

You don't have to be as bold as these headbands, but even something meant to hold your hair back can have a dramatic input on your ensemble.



Till next time....
