I've had the idea for this hat for a long time. I wanted it to be big and deep, in the shape of a lamp shade, but at the same time, to be decorated with flowers. However, I could not decide on the color and type of flowers. In the end, considering that I have a lot of blue clothes in my wardrobe, but no blue felt hat, and also impressed by the color combination of the Thai silk scarf (I wear it in this look), I settled on the royal blue shade of the hat and the sky blue shade of the flowers.

The Polish hat maker Sylwia Leśniewska (which I have already mentioned in ) managed to bring my idea to life.

The hat turned out to be a true work of art, which, probably, Christian Dior himself would have liked.

Yeah, minimality is not about me. I have a weakness for everything bright, vintage, floral and hat-est! Therefore, I love the hats, the most hat-est, the most floral, the brightest and the most vintage! Or those that look like vintage and are not inferior to them in the quality of execution.

I decided to match this wonderful hat with an equally wonderful vintage dress by "Peggy Lane" in about the same shade. I also associate this A-line dress with Dior, because it is close to his 1955 collection, although the length is already more consistent with 1962-1964.

This outfit is suitable for cool autumn, warm winter and warm spring. I wore it at the end of February. However, paired with a warm jacket, it can also be worn in cooler times, because the hat allows this.

I think that I have turned out to be a homage to Dior and his collection of 1955, coupled with the trends of 1962-1964, and my new big flower hat is just in the spirit of the 1960s too!
