No. 01 One-of-One
A one-of-a=kind holiday hat individually composed and hand-embellished by bespoke Crest Co. around an original vintage embroidered Locarno travel patch, with collected ornaments, metallic tinsel and wonderfully unexpected holiday details.
Built on a lightweight hat form and designed to be worn at a slight angle. Two discreet clips beneath the hat help secure it comfortably in place.
Approximately 5" diameter x 7" high before embellishments.
Because many of the elements are vintage, signs of age and gentle imperfections are part of their history and character.
Only one exists. It will not be reproduced.
Locarno, 1964.
She arrived alone. Her luggage did not.
By Christmas Eve, neither seemed particularly important.
What happened at the hotel was never entirely settled.
The hat is real. The adventure is imagined.
