All Sorts of Shenanigans

 There's been all sorts of things going on in the

House of Flora.

My term break's peaked.

I need a holiday.

I popped into The Hat Box to hold court

for an hour or so.

 Frankly, I love it.

There's some beautiful tonsure pieces to tempt.

 I always take something to tweak in between offering my service.

This time a taffeta rose in progress.

 That eve I was at Montrachet, perusing the menu.

I had worked up an appetite.

 Wearing a t-shirt fabric embellished turban.

Who's in?
Bad hair or good hair.

 I then whipped off to this Gala Do:

Wearing a Flora-one-of-a-Kind.

It's that beaded garland with the camellia.

Head adornment was de rigueur at the do.



 I was a shameless groupie at the Dinner.

Here's me with Richard Nylon!

 And Paris Kyne!

I know.

These hats were made under the rules of Mystery Box.

Master Milliners, the likes of Paris Kyne

were given limited materials and time and

set of to create.

Here's the results. 

 Two lovelies.

 Here's some more Master Milliners' Mystery Box results.

 There was also a Parade.

 Dessert.

 Here's Paris' Mystery Box creation on the catwalk.

 And some of the most captivating head-wear I had seen in the audience.

This was a soft velvet skull type cap, with gorgeous embellishments.

 Here's Paris' Mystery Box result on close-up.

  And, guess what it got to come home with me.

It has Paris' trademark of wrapped wire and Mohawk feathers.

 Here's Paris in a fabulous pose.

Here's his Atelier on Little Collins Street, Melbourne.

I plan to visit, soon.

Cheerio. Off to do some less important things, now.

I've got lamb shanks in the oven.
