Camille's in Old Town Spring

Here’s another post derby post. The first photo is the fabric of a dress that I was to asked to create a hat for. She liked a hat in the shop but the colors weren’t good for her dress. So using the colors in her dress and the style from another of my hat creations, I made this. ( I don’t know why but she ended up changing dresses but did wear the hat!).
I always recommend that you bring your dress in when shopping for a hat or fascinator. The ladies in these pictures did just that. That’s Celia in the yellow dress. To keep the look from looking too monochromatic, the variations of yellow in the hat not only work with her dress but match her shoes!
My former art student, Debra, (from many years ago) brought her pretty blue and white dress in. Notice not only is the blue the perfect shade of blue , but the feathers mimic the pattern in the dress. What an unexpected match! If any of you have pix of yourself wearing derby looks from Camille’s , feel free to post in the comments.

It’s Derby day!! I want to share with y’all some of the custom looks I created for customers for derby events.
This fascinator was for a first time customer. She brought in her beautiful brocade dress and asked that I focus on the flower. I built the flower to match as best I could! Here’s the dress and my interpretation.
