A little while before Christmas, I stumbled upon the Instagram account of
Tanith Rowan. Tanith designs and makes beautiful hats, and decided to launch a most exciting project - The Sisterhood of the Hat! The idea is that one of her lovely designs would wing its way around the world, landing on the doorsteps of bloggers, vintage fashioistas and just plain hat lovers from all over the globe. I was lucky enough to be the first stop on Adelaide's journey (yes the hat now has a lovely name).
Having a photographer for my other half means that I get to come up with fun ideas and he can help make them reality. For Adelaide's visit to London we decided to do a shoot inspired by Horst P.Horst, the famous fashion photographer whose work we had recently seen at a wonderful V&A exhibition.
His colour work includes some of my favourite fashion photography EVER. Just breathtaking
He also uses hands to become an almost sculptural feature of the image. Such as this one
So, as an ode to Horst, and very much inspired by his use of colour we decided to shoot lovely Adelaide atop my head in 'Horst fashion'. Apologies of you have seen these on Instagram already :-)
What a great idea - I love these pictures! I would like to wear hats more often, :-)
