Millinery class continues apace

We're almost done with the semester and my millinery graduate students have presented a few more of their projects, including two more drawn bonnets. Check out these cool hats!

Wig for "Chuckie" from Rugrats by second year grad Leah Pelz


This last one requires a bit of explanation. This year when Leah attended the USITT-Southeast conference in Orlando, one of the master classes she took involved a display of several Disney costumes, including a spiny wig for the character of "Dory" from Finding Nemo, which had been made from a combination of silicone/spandex spirals and zip ties. Leah wanted to explore a project with a similar structure, so she made this wig-hat using the same elements as the "Dory" wig.
