£45.00

Published by New Cavendish Books in 2009, Headfirst: Hats & Poems brings together Sylvia Fletcher’s twin passions for millinery and verse. A London milliner associated with James Lock & Co., Fletcher pairs couture hats with poems, prose, sketches and photographs, creating a partly autobiographical portrait of an eccentric creative world. Humorous, romantic and visually rich, the book celebrates craftsmanship, imagination and style while offering an intimate glimpse into the life of a distinguished hat designer.
